Dear Maintainer,

When opening partitionmanager, it asks for the root password to retrieve all
disk devices.
Then is scan for devices, but find nothing.

gparted correctly shows all disks (and their partition).

The log is not very verbose:
$ partitionmanager
Loaded backend plugin:  "pmsfdiskbackendplugin"
"Using backend plugin: pmsfdiskbackendplugin (1)"
"Scanning devices..."
"Scan finished."

Recommends dependencies are not installed, but I still have dosfstools and
ntfs-3g (I only have ext4 and ntfs partitions across all disks).
Other recommended dependencies are about file system I don't use.

This makes partitionmanager unusable (but I don't know since when).

Thanks!
