Package: gdisk
Version: 0.5.1-1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream fixed-upstream

Several bugs have been closed in later releases:

- Fixed serious data corruption bug on big-endian (PowerPC and similar)
  systems. [0.6.3]
- Fixed off-by-one bug in specification of partition when using the
  -T (--transform-bsd) option in sgdisk. [0.6.4]
- Fixed major bug in hybrid MBR creation, which caused incorrect
  protective partition end point settings and occasionally other
  problems. [0.6.9]
- Fixed bug that created backwards attribute field values (bit #2 was
  entered as bit #61, etc.). [0.6.10]

At least the first of these looks release critical.

I do not know whether gdisk 0.5.1-1 currently in testing and unstable is
affected or these bugs were only introduced in a later release.

Regards,
Ansgar
