FYI - I just moved parted out of the add-on section.

Hello Adolf,
The rootfile is in a wrong place for this being a package:

Since 2014 it is part of the core distribution:

Thanks for that info.

Are you expecting a package and is parted missing on your system?

On the forum a user said that he looked for parted in the addon list and couldn't find it.

I then looked in the wiki and parted is still shown as being an addon, no mention of being a core program.

Then I looked in the lfs and it has a PAK_VER number which is what addons usually have so I didn't look at the rootfile or its location.

Looking back at the git history, I see the move from packages to common in 2014 but the lfs file was not altered to remove the PAK_VER number or the @$(PAK) line. That is what confused me.

I will raise a patch to make the parted lfs file be inline with a core program and will also modify the wiki.

Obviously when I did updates of parted it didn't click in my mind that I was updating the lfs as an addon but the rootfile was in the common directory. Oh Well!! Brain must have been on autopilot.

Regards,
Adolf.

Hi all,

From a discussion on the forum it has been found that parted is no longer in the packages-list and doesn't show up on the pakfire list because of that.

I don't know when it got removed from there but updates have been getting done to parted, last was in May this year by myself and it is still in the build.

How do we get parted back into the packages-list on the server?


Regards,

Adolf
