Package: parted
Version: 1.6.5-2
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hello,

Here is a patch originating from Roman Zippel that adds propper m68k-friendly
padding to two parted filesystems supports. Notice that maybe adding a packed
attribute would be good also, but this is not implemented here. Upstream
already know of this problem, and it will probably be fixed in the next
upstream release (that is, the one after 1.6.6 when it ever is ressurected
after the gnu ftp server intrussion).

If need be, i can make an NMU for this.
