Hello!
Your package showed up in a codesearch for potential users
of the long deprecated and now removed Cylinder / Head / Sector
adressing and commandline options to sfdisk. With the rewrite
of sfdisk included in util-linux 2.26 (as already available
in Debian Unstable) these deprecated options where removed
(not reimplemented). Please check your package to make sure
it still works. If it does not, please upload a fixed version
and then report a bug against util-linux requesting a Breaks
to be added against your package and also mention the version
number of the fixed package, to allow smoothing upgrades.
While at it, please also consult the manpage for additional
deprecated commandline switches you might be using which
you'll want to drop.
Regards,
Andreas Henriksson
