GNU Parted is a program for manipulating partition tables.
-WARNING: USING PARTED TO PERFORM FILE SYSTEM OPERATIONS IS DEPRECATED
----------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Parted retains (for now) the ability to create and modify a few types of
-file systems, but that functionality is deprecated. Whenever possible,
-we recommend that you use file-system-specific tools to create and
-operate on file systems. For example, use the e2fsprogs programs
-to operate on ext2, ext3 and ext4 file systems. Use programs from
-the reiserfsprogs package if you want to manipulate reiserfs file
-systems. Although Parted lets you do some of the same things, the
-file-system-related code in parted is not as robust as the code in
-more specialized, FS-specific packages.
-
-So far, we have good arguments for retaining the capability to resize
-FAT and HFS file systems: as far as we know, no other free software
-provides that functionality. However, all other FS-related functionality
-will be removed from an upcoming release of Parted. Thus, you should
-now avoid using the following commands: mkpartfs, mkfs, cp, move, check
-since support for them will be removed.
+WARNING: USING PARTED TO PERFORM FILE SYSTEM OPERATIONS IS NO LONGER SUPPORTED
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Parted (post-2.4) no longer has the ability to create and modify file systems.
+Use file-system-specific tools to create and operate on file systems.
+For example, use the e2fsprogs programs to operate on ext2, ext3 and ext4
+file systems. Use programs from the reiserfsprogs package if you want to
+manipulate reiserfs file systems. Although Parted lets you do some of the
+same things, the file-system-related code in parted is not as robust as the
+code in more specialized, FS-specific packages.
+
+Most FS-related functionality was removed after Parted 2.4.
+Thus, the following commands are no longer supported:
+mkpartfs, mkfs, cp, move, check, resize.
See the file NEWS for a list of major changes in the current release.
(3) When space is important, we suggest --without-readline, --disable-shared,
and possibly --disable-nls and --disable-dynamic-loading.

-If Parted is only going to be used for probing / discovery (and not
-"editing"), there is a --enable-discovery-only and --disable-fs (when you're
-only interested in partition tables). Since it's readonly, --enable-debug
-gains you nothing wrt safety, so use --disable-debug ;) The "discover"
-program is about 35k (gzipped) when compiled this way (not counting libc
-and libuuid).
