Can you please paste the output of the following set of commands:

<snip>
dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=512c count=100
echo n | sudo /usr/local/sbin/parted  ---pretend-input-tty testfile "mklabel 
gpt mkpart pirmary ext3 1 -1"
</snip>

You must be root and you should have done:
<snip>
git clone git://git.debian.org/git/parted/parted.git
cd parted
git branch next --track origin/next
./bootstrap ; ./configure ; make
make install
</snip>

Thx for insisting... :)

After I execute make install, these are not installed.
