They were, but I don't know Yuri personally, and no explanation was
provided as to *why* both are needed.  Doing packaging (and seed-file)
changes based on one user's assertion seems unwise to me.  I verified
the need for the gir1.2-gudev-1.0 package, so that's what I pinged
Julien about earlier.

I'm now at home, playing with usb-creator in a Raring VM... once I
duplicate Yuri's results rgarding python-gudev too, I'll create a test
usb-creator-gtk package that Recommends: both of these packages, and
stick it in my PPA (or somewhere!) so others can test it on raring and
report their results.

Yes, thanks for that.

OK... I'm trying to verify that here now.  In parallel with some other
non-Lubuntu stuff :) :)

That is a separate issue, so please file a separate bug report for that.
 It would be good to check whether usb-creator-kde has that issue, too.

Thanks,
