I think the status in util-linux should therefore be Confirmed ?

Colin has posted the offending bit of code.  Maybe it needs to be
simply removed, but someone will have to look at the rest of the
cfdisk code to check it doesn't rely on this inaccurate assumption.  I
suspect it probably does.

Title:
  cfdisk complains about auto-resize generated setup

Status in “parted” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: partman-auto

  I did the following using the feisty i386 d-i rc cd 20070415:

  1. Install in the most normal way with erase whole disk.
  2. Install again, in Dutch, selecting auto-resize

  After I had finished the partition tables were set up in a way that
  made cfdisk complain.  The machine has a single 80GB IDE disk.

  I will attach a typescript showing the complaints from cfdisk and some
  warnings from fdisk.
