Both gparted and qtparted require libparted and both were broken for
about a day.  They should both be updated in the repos now (allowing a
little slop for mirror slowness).

This situation will hopefully improve once Core and Extras get merged.
Currently it's tough for an extras package maintainer to queue up a
rebuild when a library in core gets updated without having there be
some potential that the updated lib will hit the repos before their
rebuild is pushed out.
