Hey Ludo,

This is caused by a regression in Parted 3.5 introduced by
15c49ec04f7eaff014d2e1eddd0aecf4150db63d.
The gpt_partition_set_system call can undo what's done by
gpt_partition_set_flag call. This imposes us to reverse the call order
and make sure that gpt_partition_set_system is called before
gpt_partition_set_flag.
Fixed with: 3c381af76a144a4dc3d0f9269f43ee2ec501b538. I think we can
report that one upstream.
Thanks,
Mathieu
