Thank you Dmitri for reporting this problem.

It appears that there was a change in dosfstool program names introduced in dosfstools 3.0.18.

See the following commit:

Renaming tools to sane namespace and keeping legacy symlinks in place.
http://daniel-baumann.ch/gitweb/?p=software/dosfstools.git;a=commit;h=ea8f712730ceeb88560cbd5beeea368a28befab2

dosfslabel becomes fatlabel,
dosfsck becomes fsck.fat,
and mkdosfs becomes mkfs.fat.

Since GParted uses the older names from dosfstools 3.0.17 and earlier, this name change breaks GParted FAT16 and FAT32 support.


A temporary work around would be to create symbolic links for the old names.

For example, something like the following commands should work:

    sudo ln -s /sbin/fsck.fat /sbin/dosfsck
    sudo ln -s /sbin/mkfs.fat /sbin/mkdosfs

Regards,
Curtis
