parted 1.6.25.1-1ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

parted (1.6.25.1-1ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low

  [ Fabio M. Di Nitto ]
  * Disable CHS check in udeb:
    - add patch sparc-no-chs-in-udeb.dpatch.
    - build libparted udeb with -DNOCHSEXCEPTION=1

  libparted did grow a C/H/S sanity check in disk_sun.c. While this is a sane
  check to perform, parted_server doesn't understand the exception and fails
  because it gets a wrong size of the disk when writing a new label.
  Since we are in deep feature freeze, there is no time to make a proper fix
  into parted_server (that needs to be propagated all the way and back to
  the UI to handle it properly).
  For now let's workaround this issue disabling the feature ONLY for the udeb.
