[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
While testing parted 3.2 for our new Linux distribution, I came across a
few test failures; they were all due to 'mkpart' no longer naming
partitions.  I believe this patch to correct this.

Best,

No longer naming partitions is a bug. What version of parted are you
using? I'm not seeing this behavior with Fedora 25 and parted 3.2 (+
patches)

This is Adélie Linux, a fork of Alpine Linux, based on musl libc.  We
are using parted 3.2 with no patches (at least, beyond the test suite
patches that I sent).

I thought that this was a simple syntax change, and didn't realise
that it wasn't intentional / the actual bug.  Sorry.  I can
investigate further after our current package push is finished.


All the best,
