Use your skills :) Installing it with sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility works for me. Typing dpkg -L gnome-disk-utility | grep bin/ displays the two utilities on your path that get installed, one of which is /usr/bin/gnome-disks . Typing gnome-disks works for me here, on Lubuntu 12.10. If you absolutely *need* a menu item for it, two quick commands: sudo sed -i -e 's%Categories=%Categories=System;%' /usr/share/applications/gnome-disks.desktop sudo update-desktop-database make up a simple workaround to get it into the System Tools menu. Lastly, even if this package were totally missing or totally broken, you should still be able to "sort out" partitions using fdisk ! Bottom line: The package installs, runs and (as far as I know) works fine, the utility just changed its name, and the .desktop file could use having the "System" category added to it. The last of these is the only (minor) bug here, I think.
