So I've downloaded Gparted and Disks from the software center. According to software center, they've both installed successfully… but they're nowhere to be found.
Even in my terminal:
$ palimpsest
palimpsest: command not found
I've looked in usr/bin
… no "palimpsest", no "gnome-disk-utility".
In usr/share/gnome-disk-utility
there's a bunch of .ui
files.
According to Software Center, both programs are now installed in my computer, but it seems I've no way to find them. I've tried re-installing and restarting.
I'm on Xubuntu 32 bit.

As in AJefferiss's answer, it's
gnome-disks
, nowadays.Compare the file contents list of the package in 12.04 with the one in 12.10. It appears that
palimpsest
has been renamed tognome-disks
, without leaving a symbolic link behind. I'm surprised to see that last part has happened.Usually, the developers leave a link there to preserve compatibility. Well, my feeling about this is right, because, there you go, it's a bug!
Make sure to mark yourself affected there by this bug if you feel this should be solved. At the moment of writing this has a very low priority and is unassigned...
