liveusb-creator's gdisk scripts returns error in Jessie

The installation halts and we get this output:

ERROR:liveusb.creator:There was a problem executing the following command: `['/sbin/gdisk', '/dev/sda']`.
A more detailed error log has been written to '/tmp/liveusb-creator.log'.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/liveusb/gui.py", line 203, in run
    self.live.create_hybrid_mbr()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/liveusb/creator.py", line 270, in create_hybrid_mbr
    'Y',   # proceed, possibly destroying data
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/liveusb/creator.py", line 258, in _gdisk_script

    % {'command': cmd, 'filename': filename})
LiveUSBError: There was a problem executing the following command: `['/sbin/gdisk', '/dev/sda']`.

However, the output (in /tmp/liveusb-creator.log) and resulting partitioning from that gdisk script is still identical to what we get in Wheezy, it’s just the return code that has changed to 1.
