Hi Phil,
thanks for looking into this.
I am on ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I was not using the LiveCD, just the gparted
as available via apt.
I attach the .htm report of GParted when it crashed (it says "Libparted
3.2").
NB: I got the same errors when running fatresize.
How do I find out the exact version of libparted?
According to the changelog files installed in my system (see below), I
have two versions
- parted (2.3-19ubuntu1.14.04.1) (Patch 23 Jul 2015)
- parted (3.2-15) unstable; urgency=medium (Patch 10 Feb 2016)
Can you find the information you need below? If not let me know.
Cheers,
Andreas

- Initialise dev->loop in ped_disk_new_fresh rather than ped_disk_new.
- Temporarily set disk->dev->loop to 0 while removing partitions, so
that we can remove previously-existing non-loop partitions (thanks,
Phillip Susi).

* avoid-disturbing-partitions.patch: remove all old partitions (that are
not unchanged) first, then add new ones. This avoids an EBUSY
trying to
add new partitions that overlap with old ones that have a higher number
(closes: #742847, LP: #1220165).
* fix-loop-labels.patch: Fix loop labels (filesystem on whole disk
device).
