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.

Curtis
