GParted reverted to version 0.33.0

June 30, 2020 — BarryK

EasyOS 2.3.2 has GParted 1.0.0, which requires gtk3 and gtkmm3. It works OK, just found one bug, but, I have decided to go back to the last version that supports gtk2, which is 0.33.0.

Plus one patch:

OK, I'm a luddite, clinging onto gtk2. A major feature in 1.0.0 is improved f2fs resize/move, have to forgo that.

I have named the PET "gparted0" so as to distinguish it from the 1.x series, and 0.33.0 will be in the next release of EasyOS. Saves about 6MB, as don't need the libgtkmm3 package.
