Description Vojtech Trefny 2022-03-02 14:42:24 UTC
There are multiple patches in util-linux upstream that prevent false detection of the atari partition table with blkid. We see this mostly on LUKS devices and udev reporting there is a partition table on the device confuses blivet (python storage library used by the installer and storage role) when working with storage.

Comment 1 Karel Zak 2022-03-04 09:17:49 UTC
Postpone to 8.7.

Comment 2 Karel Zak 2022-07-12 10:25:13 UTC
It seems we need to backport patches based on https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/issues/1159 upstream report.

Upstream commits: 
2cc76d50d7a14bef8e7b07fab11b26c9e49d36a2

(or just copy all libblkid/src/partitions/atari.c).
