ACK, sorry; just a wild guess since the gpt.c hunk was next.


KiBi, shutting up.

As far as I can see PT (where used in code comments) are intentional
meaning "(any kind of) partition table", ie. MBR or GPT (or both)
not necessarily just GPT. If you think otherwise (and care to bother)
please point out the exact error more clearly (because I might just be
too tired to see it).

I've notified upstream about the "entreis" debug message typo.
(Spotted "memu" myself recently, which I mentioned and it was swiftly
fixed in upstream master branch...)

Thanks.

No objections based on a quick read of the changelog, beware of “PT”
(for GPT) in src/context.c and “entreis” (for entries) in src/gpt.c.

Ok with me, CC'ing KiBi for a d-i ack.

Please consider unblocking package util-linux

It contains many bugfixes cherry-picked from the master branch, not very
exciting stuff, fixes CVE-2017-2616 but since we don't build su from
util-linux (yet) it's also *YAWN*.

I've received no (negative) feedback since the upload.
