I wanted a later parted than comes with the machine I am working on. So I
downloaded it, but it seems it has a bug related to temp file usage, or
perhaps some kind of synchronization error?:
# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 7.11 (wheezy)
Release: 7.11
Codename: wheezy
# uname -a
Linux dal8 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.84-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parted/static/parted-1.8.1-static
# md5sum parted-1.8.1-static
def7525b360666c654c7d1bb4d89d2a7 parted-1.8.1-static
# chmod +x parted-1.8.1-static
# ./parted-1.8.1-static
parted-1.8.1-static: can't open file '/tmp/upxA0DIZXFAYFN (deleted)'
I tried this on another machine:
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.

$ chmod +x parted-1.8.1-static
