            Bug ID: 15703
           Summary: Resolve sgdisk UUID warning in gptfdisk package
           Product: buildroot
           Version: 2023.02.3
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Outdated package
          Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
          Reporter: jkoch at outrider.ai
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
  Target Milestone: ---

When using any option that generates a random UUID using sgdisk (e.g. sgdisk -G
/dev/sda) you are presented with the warning:
Warning! Unable to generate a proper UUID! Creating an improper one as a last
resort! Windows 7 may crash if you save this partition table!

This appears to stem from a change in libuuid where a #define was changed:

Upstream gptfdisk has resolved this issue on 2022-04-16 (and a few others
since) but these patches haven't yet made it into the buildroot package.
