Public bug reported:
If setting the partition name with the -c or --change-name option,
sgdisk cuts off the 36th character.
sgdisk --change-name=1:"3A184FB2-508B-4C5B-A92A-5ABBE35EDDD2" /dev/sdb
parted -m /dev/sdb print | grep ^1:
1:1049kB:7516MB:7515MB:ext4:3A184FB2-508B-4C5B-A92A-5ABBE35EDDD:;
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^
If I set the name with parted, all is good.
parted -s /dev/sdb name 1 3A184FB2-508B-4C5B-A92A-5ABBE35EDDD2
parted -m /dev/sdb print | grep ^1:
1:1049kB:7516MB:7515MB:ext4:3A184FB2-508B-4C5B-A92A-5ABBE35EDDD2:;
