Description Mike 2018-07-21 16:47:53 UTC
KDiskFree could use the ability to hide loop devices created by snapd

or perhaps the ability to hide mounts of type "squashfs" (since they're read-only and have no free space, seeing them is not helpful most of the time).

Right now when I open KDiskFree I see a sea of red at the top (since loop comes before sda*) none of which is interesting when I run KDiskFree to get a sense of how full the partitions I write to are.

There may be occasions when having the loop devices listed is useful (just seeing them enumerated in a gui is useful, as is seeing their sizes), but that's more of an exceptional case.

also see bug 379516 which was for frameworks-solid
