I think we need to create a 2.69 compat package. I certainly have no current plans to switch upstream parted to 2.71 and while I now have a wonderful 1.8M patch that fixes it for Fedora I'd rather just use the upstream tar release with 2.69 until we're comfortable moving. Having 2.71 available is valuable, so both should be packaged, but it should not be a requirement at this point. Brian -- Brian C.
