> Hi,
> 
> I would like to announce release of KDE Partition Manager (and KPMcore library) 4.2.0.
> 
> https://download.kde.org/stable/kpmcore/4.2.0/src/
> https://download.kde.org/stable/partitionmanager/4.2.0/src/
> 
> Packaging changes:
> 
> * partitionmanager no longer depends on KIconThemes.
> * kpmcore gained explicit dependency on polkit-qt1.
> * KAuth is now only a build-time dependency used for extracting translations. It will almost surely be gone completely in the next release.
> * KDE Frameworks 5.73 is now required. This was overlooked before the release and cmake only checks for 5.56.
> 
> Changes:
> * KAuth helper replaced with pure PolkitQt1 helper.
> * KDE Partition Manager (including KPMcore library) is now fully REUSE 3.0 compliant [1].
> * Support for partitions with unknown file system.
> * Fixed and improved mount point and /etc/fstab handling.
> * Fixed a crash that was present for a long time but hard to reproduce reliably.
> * KPMcore gained support for GPT partition attributes (It is not yet wired in KDE Partition Manager).
> * KPMcore has more support for setting GPT partition label and UUID (Again, not yet wired in KDE Partition Manager).
> * Port away from various deprecated Qt/KDE methods.
> 
> A few notable bugfixes:
> * Workaround bad JSON output from sfdisk (will be fixed in util-linux 2.37).
> * Import partition flags when importing partition table.
> * Apply colour scheme to secondary (MBR logical) partitions.
> 
> Kind regards,
