Hi Chris,

I thought a patch by Rod Smith was accepted and incorporated into 3.1 to deal 
with this, but I'm still seeing Linux partitions with the Windows basic data 
GUID on GPT disks. Is this expected?

The patch from Rod Smith regarding "Need for a unique Linux GPT GUID type code" was pushed in late September, 2012.

See email:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/parted-devel/2012-September/004237.html

See git commit:
add support for a new Linux-specific GPT partition type code
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/parted.git/commit/?id=e6536360bd4496cee1f1bf2dfb0b11f6bdbbfd4b

Because Parted 3.1 was released earlier (on March 2nd, 2012) this commit is not included in parted-3.1.

There has been no official parted release since 3.1.

Regards,
Curtis
