Comment on GParted: core features lost due to parted's "improvements" in v3.0

Comments

I don't get why these libparted features were "deprecated" when their removal leads to GParted 0.9.0 effectively dropping FAT16/FAT32 and HFS(+) support.

I guess what's missing is any indication that libparted does not intend to reimplement these features in the future in another manner? I mean it reads to me that gparted is announcing the ability to even use libparted-3.0. I mean there's a reason the libparted people bumped the version number to 3.0 (i.e. freedom to re-design the API), you know.
