==================== 0.6.2 (2010-08-01) ==================== NOTES This release of GParted includes important bug fixes, and language translation updates. Key changes include: - Re-enable MiB partition alignment option - Fix problem with logical partition move overwriting EBR BUG FIXES * Re-enable MiB partition alignment option * Fix problem with logical partition move overwriting EBR (#623630) * Ensure original partition boundaries kept on rollback of failed move * If available use both udisks and hal-lock to prevent auto-mounting TRANSLATIONS (new/updated) * cs(Petr Kovar, Marek Černocký), es(Jorge González), el(Dimitris Tsiolis), kk(Baurzhan Muftakhidinov), zh_CN(Aron Xu) DEPENDENCIES (new/updated) * no change. ==================== 0.6.1 (2010-07-08) ==================== NOTES This is an important bug fix release for two critical bugs found in GParted. Also included are some language translation updates. Key changes include: - Fix crash moving partition when size is a multiple of 16 MiB - Disable MiB alignment temporarily until bug #623630 can be fixed. Bug #623630 is a problem where moving logical partitions using the new MiB alignment feature might overwrite the Extended Boot Record of another logical partition. This causes an invalid partition table with a wrong signature. BUG FIXES * Fix crash moving partition when size is a multiple of 16 MiB (#623697) * Disable MiB alignment temporarily until bug #623630 can be fixed.

The problem was that all /dev/mapper/* entries were added to the device list including LVM partitions. This was confusing behaviour to GParted users, and in my opinion it was better to roll back this change. A work-around for /dev/mapper/* device detection is available by passing the device names to gparted on the command line. E.g., gparted /dev/mapper/device-name Thanks to François Dupoux for identifying this problem early, and working towards a resolution.
