parted @ Savannah: parted-3.7 released [stable]

I have released parted 3.7

Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:

  https://ftp.gnu.o ... parted-3.7.tar.xz

  https://ftp.gnu.o ... ed-3.7.tar.xz.sig

Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:

Here are the SHA256 checksums:

de51773eef47a10db34ff2462f3b3c9d987d4bdb49420f0a22e1dda1ff897a5c  parted-3.7.tar.xz.sig

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig

suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the

corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify parted-3.7.tar.xz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,

or that public key has expired, try the following commands to update

or refresh it, and then rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.

  gpg --locate-external-key bcl@redhat.com

  gpg --recv-keys 117E8C168EFE3A7F

  wget -q -O- 'https://savannah. ... ed&download=1' | gpg --import -

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:

  Autoconf 2.72

  Automake 1.17

  Gettext 0.23.1

  Gnulib commit 4e11e3d07a79a49eaa9b155c43801bbc1e5bd86e

  Gperf 3.1
