Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libparted1.8-9

I've installed ubuntu 8.10 on a fakeraid raid10-set.

I booted using the live-cd and then installed dmraid manually
My raid-set was detected correctly and showed up in /dev/mapper.

Then I started ubiquity, but the installer did not show my
read10-device. He did show me the 2 raid0-set that are part of the
raid10-set. ubiquity is using parted_devices and parted_devices is using
libparted.

When I run parted_devices manually I get the following results:
/dev/sda        500107862016    ATA ST3500320AS
/dev/sdb        500107862016    ATA ST3500320AS
/dev/sdc        500107862016    ATA ST3500320AS
/dev/sdd        500107862016    ATA ST3500320AS
/dev/mapper/isw_bfgggbebhf_diskset-0    1000210694144   Linux device-mapper
/dev/mapper/isw_bfgggbebhf_diskset-1    1000210694144   Linux device-mapper

I would expect the following result:
/dev/mapper/isw_bfgggbebhf_diskset      1000210694144   Linux device-mapper

It looks like that the patch parted-dmraid.dpatch in libparted is
causing the problems. I removed this patch, build and installed
libparted and then my raid10-device showed up.

I think that the new function _is_dmraid_major is not correct.
isw_bfgggbebhf_diskset is the slave of my partitions, but still is the
major device.

output of /dev/mapper:
