Title:
  gparted suggests mtools which is useful in a live environment

Status in gparted package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in xubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Starting up this weekend's Live DVD of Xubuntu, trying to inspect the
  partitions on the drive using Gparted, it complains it wants package
  mtools added in order to display EFI partition correctly.

  I exit Gparted, add it to the Live session via:
  sudo apt-get install mtools

  Once that finishes, I restart Gparted, and no more error in the row
  containing the EFI partition.

  I just completed a load off a fresh boot of the same DVD, the same
  error opening Gparted did not happen. Perhaps the Live installer added
  the package dynamically since it was instructed to provision an EFI
  partition? Not sure.
