Ubuntu – How to launch Disk Utility after installing it

disk-utility

I'm trying to run gnome-disk-utility. But I cannot seem to find it.

sudo apt-get install gnome-disk-utility says its already installed, as does the software manager, however running gnome-disk-utility or palimpsest gets me command not found.

I have tried reinstalling it (sudo apt-get install --reinstall, and sudo apt-get removesudo apt-get install), which does no good.

whereis: palimpsest return empty
whereis: gnome-disk-utility returns /usr/share/gnome-disk-utility, a folder which contains nothing but *.ui files

So, what has gone wrong, and how do I fix it?
