The following seems to be some kind of automated email that was intended
for bug-parted <at> gnu.org. But because it seems to have been sent via bcc,
debbugs.gnu.org (which bug-parted uses) had no idea which package to
associate it with, so it ended up on the help-debbugs mailing list. I
have reassigned it to the parted package.

I hope alioth will refine its system, to either use an explicit to: address,
or to put "package: parted" in the first line of the body.
Otherwise this is going to go wrong every time.

I have no idea why this was sent, and the issue is specific to debian,
not gnu parted.
