Please unblock parted 3.2-25: there was an arithmetic error in its
handling of extended partitions, which was often in practice masked by
higher-level tools but could be triggered in some circumstances such as
by gnome-disks, leading to disturbing results like apparently-vanishing
partitions. The patch is pretty clear if you look at a little more
context: one branch of an if/else block multiplied by the device's
sector size while the other didn't, which was obviously wrong.
