Added a display refresh to the event queue to address this
problem.
Previously, the display area of the visual disk seemed to
disappear when enough operations had been added to the queue so
that a scrollbar was required (about 4 operations).
If the three lines in HBoxOperations::load_operations method for
"//make scrollwindow focus on the last operation in the list"
were commented out then this also prevented the problem from
occurring.
Interestingly, if I changed the "set_cursor" method to
a "scroll_to_row" method, then this problem does not occur for an
additional 2 operations (about 6 operations total).
Ubuntu launchpad bug 583746 - Partition graph disappears after a
swap partition has been deleted
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/583746
Previously when creating a new partition on a device with 512
byte sectors with 7 MiB chosen and cylinder alignment, the
snap_to_cylinder logic would round up to 2 cylinders (~15.69
MiB), instead of the correct 1 cylinder (~7.84 MiB).
Re-work logic for copying a cylinder aligned partition to a new
MiB aligned partition. Previously this was partially fixed in
bug #626946 - Destination partition smaller than source partition
Closes Bug #639393 - Redux: Destination partition smaller than
source partition
Use mntent C library to read mount point files such as
/etc/fstab, /etc/mtab, and /proc/mounts.
Closes bug #629592 - Unable to find Mount Point if it contains a
Space Character
The reason for refactoring is to simplify the large GParted_Core
class, to help minimize disk reads, and to group the logic for
processing the file /proc/partitions into a single logical class.

Enhance code so that all calls to the ped_partition_get_path
function in the libparted library go through one
GParted_Core::get_partition_path method.
This one method makes the appropriate adjustments to the dmraid
partition path name as required.
Closes bug #634553 - ntfsresize fails on RAID array
This problem would occur when using align to MiB for the
destination partitions.

more than one logical partition
This new URL is actually an html redirect to the actual page
location. This permits us the flexibility to move the actual
page wherever is needed on the web site without the need to
change the URL location in the code.
Correct problem introduced in version 0.6.3 whereby move or copy
operations using MiB alignment resulted in the destination
partition being 1 MiB larger.
Closes bug #632478
GParted already has basic support only to recognize Btrfs volumes; if
configured, use our newer methods to handle them.
Also, put in place interface controls for all supported generic actions.
This adds initial handlers for Btrfs; only .create, .check and
.read_label are done for now, via external btrfs-tools.
Other methods are still only stubs.
Change string initialization to use direct assignment instead of
a class method in the GParted_Core class initialization.
Thanks go to Jan Claeys for pointing out this potential problem
and providing the following link:

This link contains a comment by Matthias Clasen that says:
"In a class init function, don't do anything that causes
other threads to initialize classed types."
Prior to this enhancement creating a new partition aligned to MiB
after a partition aligned to cylinder would result in the creation of
a partition that was 1 MiB smaller in size than requested. In the
case of a 1 MiB new partition, a warning message would be displayed
indicating that "A partition cannot have a length of 0 sectors".
This problem is avoided by applying similar logic as was used to
address the following bug:
Bug #626946 - Destination partition smaller than source partition
Prior to this enhancement when copying and pasting a partition
after a cylinder aligned partition, the destination partition
would become smaller than the source partition if align to MiB
was selected.
Closes bug #626946 - Destination partition smaller than source
partition.
Newer versions (dmraid-1.0.0-rc16?) of dmraid default to always
creating partition names by inserting the letter 'p' between the
device name and the partition number. Since this is not
consistent with older versions of dmraid, add extra logic to
ensure that newer versions of dmraid do not insert this extra
letter 'p'.
Rename method get_udev_name to get_udev_dm_name and enhance to
retrieve the property DM_NAME.
Handle situation where parted, and hence libparted, has been
configured with --disable-device-mapper. In this situation on
some distros the device name could be /dev/dm-0. This results in
invalid partition names such as /dev/dm-0p1. Add logic to decode
the actual /dev/mapper name.
