Public bug reported:
When growpart attempts to determine the partition to resize, it uses
this logic:
$ sed -n '266,275p' $(which growpart)
dpart="${DISK}${PART}" # disk and partition number
if [ -b "${DISK}p${PART}" -a "${DISK%[0-9]}" != "${DISK}" ]; then
# for block devices that end in a number (/dev/nbd0)
# the partition is "<name>p<partition_number>" (/dev/nbd0p1)
dpart="${DISK}p${PART}"
elif [ "${DISK#/dev/loop[0-9]}" != "${DISK}" ]; then
# for /dev/loop devices, sfdisk output will be <name>p<number>
# format also, even though there is not a device there.
dpart="${DISK}p${PART}"
fi
If the disk is an image, and the image filename ends with a number, the
partition will be "${DISK}p${PART}"; however, "${DISK}p${PART}" will not
be a block device. Thus, the partition is improperly identified as just
"${DISK}${PART}".
This gives us a failure like:
+ growpart -v -v -v disk-uefi.ext4 1
update-partition set to true
