This bug can be fixed by changing two lines in the python script /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/usbcreator/backends/udisks$ diff -u backend.py.orig backend.py.
It seems rather important to fix it, since it will prevent people from installing Ubuntu. Also, it is rather off-putting to find a webpage which explains how easy it is to make a bootable USB stick, and then have the easy solution instantly crash. I am attaching a patch which fixed this problem for me. ** Patch added: "fs.mount_sync(no_options, None) -> fs.call_mount_sync(no_options, None)" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/1279987/+attachment/4283625/+files/backend.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279987 Title: usb-creator-gtk crashed with TypeError in __call__(): first argument must be the method signature string: GLib.Variant('a{sv}', {}) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/1279987/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
