I need some context here. What's generating these errors? And why is this a problem? Nothing in parted has changed in relation to library locations.

Comment 4 David Cantrell 2013-04-01 18:13:07 UTC

This is largely cosmetic, not really appropriate for .10 and later update releases.

The risk of regression from tools that expect /sbin/parted outweighs the benefit of moving parted and partprobe to /usr/sbin.
