Package: gnu-fdisk
Version: 1.1-2
Severity: wishlist


Upstream released version 1.2:

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-fdisk/2009-01/msg00003.html

As stated in the changelog this release addresses several bugs from
Debian's BTS: #445304 #463720 #504747 #511035

As #504747 seems to be the reason why gnu-fdisk was removed from
testing (http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gnu-fdisk/news/20090112T163917Z.html)
I'd highly appreciate feedback from the maintainer(s) about their
point of view since it's one of the few/the only tool(s) which is
able to sanely edit gpt disklabels. *If* there's any chance to
re-add and get the release into lenny it should be taken IMHO.

regards,
