Comment 1 for bug 1586923

This issue is able to be reproduced on Debian Sid. I used the same version of parted on Debian Sid to test on my Macmini, and encountered the same problem. Therefore it's not specific to Ubuntu xenial only. The details:
# uname -r
4.5.0-2-amd64

# dpkg -l |grep -i parted
ii libparted-fs-resize0:amd64 3.2-15.drbl1 amd64 disk partition manipulator - shared FS resizing library
ii libparted2:amd64 3.2-15.drbl1 amd64 disk partition manipulator - shared library
ii parted 3.2-15.drbl1 amd64 disk partition manipulator

# parted -s /dev/sda print
Model: ATA APPLE HDD HTS541 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB
