Mmm, i was under the impression that there are two different things,
progreiserfs and reiserfsprog, one being from hans-reiser upstream, and the
other from some other guy. I believe that the one you package and the one
parted uses is not the one where hans reiser is involved in.

Ok, but now that sarge is released, what are the plans for etch ? The question
is if i keep parted without reiserfs support, or if i add it again ?

Hehe, the bouncing email and the 1 year plus old changelog entry made me
believe otherwise.
But that said, have you looked at the patches in the bug-parted mailing list,
do you want me to send them or something ?
