Bug#601695: partman-partitioning: fat partition resizing fails

[Samuel Thibault <sthibault@debian.org>]

Package: partman-partitioning
Version: 77
Severity: normal

Hello,

When trying to resize a FAT partition (1GB, prepared by fdisk, type c
(FAT32 LBA), formated by mkdosfs -F32), partman prints "Error: unable
to determine maximum new size for partition". Indeed, oddly enough,
get_resize_range doesn't report any value.

The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a
dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.
