Package: util-linux
Version: 2.13.1~rc2-2
Severity: wishlist
File: /sbin/cfdisk
cfdisk does not seem to work at all on regular files. It complains
about not knowing the disk size, and then exits.

Version: 2.25-1
Hello!
The new util-linux v2.25 contains a completely rewritten cfdisk program
which is now based on the new (lib)fdisk code. This means cfdisk should
now work equally well as the new fdisk and hopefully the reported bug
should be gone.
If you still see the problem you originally reported with the new version
then please do reopen the bug report and provide some additional information
about it.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
