...
and then, running gparted on /dev/sdb , I get a yellow warning triangle and a message in partition information :
"Unable to read the contents of this file system!
Because of this some operations may be unavailable.
The cause might be a missing software package.
The following list of software packages is required for f2fs file system support: f2fs-tools."
can this be caused by different mkfs/fsck/kernel versions ? or this is some overlook during gparted development ?

The behaviour seen in GParted is because GParted is unable to read the used/unused information from the F2FS file system. Hence it warns that some operations may be unavailable. This is due to limitations in the file system tools for F2FS.

And note that GParted does not have READ capability for F2FS.
