Description Erik 2019-01-15 03:49:37 UTC 
SUMMARY

KDE Partition Manager is using the device name instead of the uuid when updating partition mount points in fstab

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put in a flash drive
2. Open KDE Partition Manager
3. Unmount the flash drive
4. Change the mount point of the flash drive
5. Apply
6. "Save Changes"
7. less /etc/fstab
8. Look at the bottom, it should say something like:

/dev/sdh       /home/me/test     vfat    defaults        0       0


OBSERVED RESULT

Device name is used to define the partition in the fstab

EXPECTED RESULT

Uuid is used to define the partition in the fstab

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.14.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Qt Version: 5.11.2
Kernel: 4.19.0

Have you selected UUID in combobox? It should use whathever you tell it 
to... (path, label, uuid, GPT partition label, GPT partition UUID)
