[Bug 1459557] Re: partitions blacklisted in launcher keep coming back

 

I characterized this problem more clearly. The culprit is the program
gnome-disk-utility. If standby time or APM is set to ON, all partitions
of the drive are added to the launcher. If they are removed with "unlock
from launcher" they come back with the next reboot. If the standby time
and APM are set to OFF, normal launcher behavior returns. This started
happening in May 2015. In my case the disk is /dev/sdb which contains
various rarely used Linux partitions (old versions of Ubuntu, Fedora,
Suse, Mint) and is normally not spinning (APM set for spin-down).
