The parted dependency looks suspect; seems to be an incorrect linking
with libsepol despite not directly calling any sepol functions.
Aside from that, if we have to bump the so version and deal with
compat packages anyway, should we go ahead and purge all of the other
deprecated functions in libsepol and libsemanage (grep -ri deprecated
libsepol libsemanage)?
