On an up-to-date Debian Unstable I get this error:

I get it when trying clicking both "Install ..." and "Upgrade ..." in
the launcher window when a USB drive or SD card is plugged, resulting in
the application exiting. If I start it in either mode without a device
plugged, I get the error as soon as I plug a device -- in this case at
least the "No device suitable ..." warning disappears and reappears as I
plug/unlpug a device, but it's of course no listed.

I also tried to zero a device, to no avail.

Cheers!
