parted (2.3-8ubuntu5.2) precise; urgency=low
* Added linux-specific-gpt-type.patch: Cherry pick upstream patch to
add Linux own partition type code GUID for fs partitions on GPT
disks (LP: #1333462):
Parted will set PARTITION_LINUX_DATA_GUID as the default partition type
code on GPT disks, avoiding problems with other tools such as:
- grub: /usr/lib/os-probes/mounted/20microsoft
- windows: asking to format an already linux-formatted partition

the partition device path (LP: #1012946)

* Backport from upstream:
- HFS/HFS+ probe: don't let a corrupt FS evoke failed assertion
(LP: #796891).

* At least some Intel Macs get rather upset if we revert to a protective
MBR, so try harder to avoid this and to do a better job of writing a
hybrid MBR:
- Write a type code of 0x83 for more filesystems, and 0xda for
non-filesystem partitions.
- Do not rely on filesystem probing to recognise EFI System Partitions.
- Write a protective partition starting at LBA 1 if we find an EFI
System Partition or BIOS Boot Partition in the first position, even if
it does not really begin at LBA 1 (LP: #856826).
- Ensure that protective partitions corresponding to an ESP or BBP
always have starting cylinder 0, head 0, sector 1.
- Don't revert to a protective MBR just because the first GPT partition
wasn't recognised as anything in particular.
- Add tests for hybrid MBR syncing.

parted (2.3-8ubuntu2) precise; urgency=low
* Add 16-dos-partitions.patch: Fix parted to correctly handle
more than 16 partitions on dos partition tables.
* Add dm-part-sync.patch: Backport fix to allow modifying partitions
on dmraid disks while other partitions are in use.
* Replace dmraid.patch: Reimplemented and forwarded upstream,
allows dmraid raid10 disks to show up (LP: #311179)
* Replace loop-partitions.patch: this patch used to make sure that
we don't try to partition loop devices. Now it backports a few
upstream changes to allow partitioning loop devices since that is
supported on Linux since 3.0. It includes a change that also fixes
support for > 16 partitions.
* Add skip-floppy.patch: don't probe floppy drives. (LP: #910379)

parted (2.3-8ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- gptsync.patch: On Intel Mac systems, write a synced MBR rather than a
protective MBR.
- Add -fno-stack-protector on sparc.
- loop-partitions.patch: Loop devices can only have one partition, so
don't generate device names such as "/dev/loop0p1".
- udevadm-settle.patch: Run 'udevadm settle' either side of rereading
the partition table if not chrooted, to avoid a variety of races.
- dmraid.patch: Ensure that device-mapper devices for dmraid arrays do
not have extra nodes created needlessly, as well as making sure that
partition nodes for dmraid devices are not probed.
- fix-head-size-assertion.patch: Fix probe_partition_for_geom() to fail
gracefully rather than abort with PED_ASSERT().
- dm_p_separator.patch: Device mapper type should not automatically mean
add 'p' before the partition number. Fall back to adding it only if
the previous character is a digit. This complies with kpartx behavior
and Linux behavior "since the dawn of time".
- remove-dev_t-dep.patch: Remove incorrect code from arch/linux.c that
made assumptions about the meaning of dev_t causing mounted partitions
to not be identified on dmraid devices and extended partition numbers
>= 16.
* Merge Matthew Garrett's dmidecode changes (from 2006!) to find SMBIOS
tables on EFI systems.

[ Robert Millan ]
* Add detection of ZFS volumes (closes: #635384).
* Add detection of GEOM encryption devices (closes: #635393).
parted (2.3-7) unstable; urgency=low
* Use [linux-any] in debian/control rather than [!hurd-i386 !kfreebsd-i386
!kfreebsd-amd64].
* Remove libparted.la from libparted0-dev.
* Convert to multiarch.
