Title:
  please package newer upstream release of parted

Status in “parted” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “parted” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  Parted package version is 2.3

  3 new versions are out since 2.3 (2.4 3.0 and 3.1).

  Why not upgrading it ? Many work have been done on EPT and that can be
  a good improvement for everybody.

  another things : 2.4 default align to 1MiB, that can be a HUGE boost in performance for every disk with 4K block. (gparted do the same since ages).
  (and I can't list all of them)
