Hello there!

After creating a rather small partition on a pendrive (1000KB) I used
partprobe and got the following:


Backtrace has 12 calls on stack:

Thanks for the report. Parted version 2.3 is relatively old. The
latest version is 3.1, are you able to reproduce the error with that
version?

parted 2.3 is very old and no longer supported here.  You should
report this to your distribution instead.  This particular bug was
fixed long ago in parted, and the fix backported to debian based distros.
