Subject: util-linux: package addpart , partx
Package: util-linux
Version: 2.12-10
Severity: normal

*** Please type your report below this line ***

Please package the partx, addpart and delpart tools, that allow
partition manipulation without rebooting. E.g.:
creating a new partition in the free space of the (only) hard drive
normally requires a reboot (yuck!). When using fdisk for exmaple.
addpart can add that new partition tothe system without a reboot.

Or make {c,s,}fdisk do this by themselves.
