Item posted by Brian C. Lane <bcl> on Mon 14 Dec 2020 07:49:11 PM UTC.
I've built a 3.3.52 alpha, this will become the stable 3.4 release in a
few weeks if nothing critical is found. I'll be on vacation for a bit, I
may not do this until mid-January.
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify parted-3.3.52.tar.xz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 117E8C168EFE3A7F
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.69
Automake 1.16.1
Gettext 0.21
Gnulib v0.1-4130-g8183682cc
Gperf 3.1
