Hello,
Sorry to have to email the list but the Trac submission form is rejecting my bug as spam. The following are the details of the bug:
Description: Created and image with 3 partitions, all primary. 2nd partition is an empty partition (0 under fdisk). Deleted 3rd partition using 'parted -s temp.dd rm 3'. 2nd partition (the empty one) was also deleted. 1st partition remains.
Expected outcome: partition 3 should be deleted without affecting any other partitions.
Actual outcome: partition 3 and any previous 'empty' partitions are deleted.
