Bug ID: 447762
Summary: No support for moving unsupported/unknown partitions
with non-integer sizes
Product: partitionmanager
Version: 21.12.0
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: andr...@stikonas.eu
Reporter: starte...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I choose to move an "unknown" partition with non-integer size (like 16.10
MiB (32968 sectors) or 21.37 MiB (43769 sectors)), Partition Manager decides to
resize the partition to the integer size, and when I continue the operation –
it fails.
Moving an unsupported partition with integer size doesn't fail, and succeeds.
I also noticed that the integer size enforce applies to the supported
partitions as well.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have an unsupported/unknown partition (for example, created with gdisk);
2. Try to move it;
3. PM should decide to resize it – continue the operation and see what happens.
OBSERVED RESULT
- Integer partition size enforce affects the unsupported partitions as well.
- PM resizes the partition before moving it.
- Because PM can't resize the partition - it fails.
EXPECTED RESULT
PM should just move the partition, and not try to resize it if it cannot be
resized (even better - should let the user decide on it, when the partition is
supported).
