Hans, I'm adding this to your commit. If you'd like to adjust the wording, please let me know ASAP: diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index 89e8804..75b04c1 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -18,6 +18,10 @@ GNU parted NEWS -*- outline -*- ** Bug fixes + ped_partition_busy no longer calls libparted's exception handler, + since doing so caused trouble with anaconda/pyparted operating on + dmraid devices. + Partitions in a GPT table are no longer assigned the "microsoft reserved partition" type. Before this change, each partition would be listed with a type of "msftres" by default. _______________________________________________ bug-parted mailing list bug-parted@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-parted
