i tried to shrink a btrfs partition with KDE partition manager but it broke it.
had to use testdisk to restore the partition. what a pain.

you have to manually resize the mounted partition with for example "sudo btrfs
filesystem resize -50G /mountpoint/". failing to do so will corrupt it !

if correct resizing can't be done in kpartitionmanager please at least add a
warning if a user attempts to do that.

otherwise thanks for a great program that has helped me many times in the past.
regards
Philipp
