Description Sean Ellis 2016-04-24 22:01:41 UTC

There is no way to apply changes to an edited mount point.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Partition Manager
2. Select a partition with a mount point.
3. Right click and select "Unmount" to unmount it.
4. Right click and select "Edit Mount Point" to edit the mount point.
5. The edit mount point dialog is displayed.

Actual Results:  
You can edit the mount point but there is no way to accept the changes. The only way to close the dialog is with the close button (red "X" at top right) which cancels the change.

Expected Results:  
There should be an OK or Apply button in this dialog.

I note that the version selected for Kubuntu 16.04 LTS is 1.2.1, which is well behind the curve.

Comment 1 Andrius Štikonas 2016-04-24 22:05:42 UTC

This is indeed already fixed in the latest version. I think you actually need 2.1.0. Even 2.0.x is not enough.

However, I would still not recommend editing mount points at the moment because they completely overwrite /etc/fstab file (e.g. all comments will be lost, etc...)

Comment 2 Andrius Štikonas 2016-04-24 22:06:12 UTC

By the way, you can submit bug report downstream for Kubuntu asking to package a newer version.

One year later, this bug still alive.
That's annoying because otherwise Kubuntu simply rocks !
I'm using Kubuntu 16.10 64-bit (upgraded 16.04), Linux Kernel: 4.8.0-46
KDE Plasma: 5.7.5
KDE Frameworks: 5.26.0
Qt: 5.6.1
By the way, thank you people for all your work. It is priceless.

Comment 4 Andrius Štikonas 2017-04-14 18:46:20 UTC

Why don't you upgrade to latest Kubuntu. It has significantly newer partition manager and this bug is fixed there.

Are you talking about 17.04 ? I always accept when the system suggests any update/upgrade. The upgrade to 17.04 hasn't spawned yet. Is there anything to do to trigger this upgrade ? Thank you.

I ran "do-release-upgrade", which brought back missing ok/cancel buttons. Thank  you.

By the way, did partitionmanager upgrade without interruption?
I think earlier some people reported this problem
