[Bug 554582] Re: Gparted does not list dmraid devices

 

I don't think gparted needs kpartx.

I have removed its dependency in my package and it operates perfectly on
the dmraid device nodes both with letters and numbers at the end of the
device node.

Its odd that its required as in the code the dmraid command returns a
string so it shouldn't matter at all what the partition ends are (from a
programming point of view). In my opinion it seems like a hack way of
getting the desired result.

I've uploaded my lucid gparted (without the kpartx dependency) to my testing ppa if you would like to test:
