I checked the SLES package and it is a patch that they have added
themselves :(
I will look into it to see if parted provides a better way to get the
same information.

Hi Henrik,
Okay, got it but there is a problem:

paphio:~/libvirt -> grep PED_PARTITION_TYPE
/usr/include/parted/*.h paphio:~/libvirt -> rpm -qf
/usr/include/parted/parted.h

PED_PARTITION_TYPE is nowhere to be found in my parted
headers so even if there is a runtime check to see if that
flag is available, it just doesn't compile here. I suspect
something changed seriously as I can see a reference to
PED_PARTITION_TYPE in older version 1.7.0 maybe that's what's
you got on SuSE but that flag is not available on Fedora, so
this would need at least a #ifdef PED_PARTITION_TYPE or make
sure we use a more stable interface to fetch it,
Could you investigate the issue ? Is there a different API
available ?
The other parts of the patch looks fine but really depend on
being able to fetch that information in the first place, so
it's not worth applying as is.
