That's odd; this was definitely not as intended, and I can't reproduce this, even with the commit you recently pushed (thanks!). $ parted/parted -s t.img mkfs 1 'linux-swap(new)' [0] filesys.c:147 (ped_file_system_type_get): File system alias linux-swap(new) is deprecated The parted UI seems to use ped_file_system_type_get, which definitely ought to do file system alias lookups given my patch, so I don't see where this could be going wrong. What am I missing?
