bug#25007: Bug: command parameters ignored when parted sees need to fix GPT

Trying to see how things perform when we don't fix the GPT as suggested:

# parted /dev/mmcblk0 mkpart persist 2048 2058
Warning: Not all of the space available to /dev/mmcblk0 appears to be used,
you can fix the GPT to use all of the space (an extra 25661440 blocks) or
continue with the current setting?
parted: invalid token: persist
Fix/Ignore? i
Partition name?  []?
File system type?  [ext2]?
Start? ^C

Note that hitting ^C on the "fix/ignore" or "partition name" prompts have
no effect, one cannot abort before the "file system type" prompt.

Then once I have accepted the fix things do work as expected:

# parted /dev/mmcblk0 mkpart persist 2048 2058
Information: You may need to update /etc/fstab.


Or, alternatively, one can just use the "no question on tty" feature:

# parted /dev/mmcblk0 mkpart persist 2048 2058 </dev/null
