Disk.target seems to be writable but fails when you try to do so

[Guilherme Salgado]

Binary package hint: python-parted

Disk.target is implemented as a property with a setter but that will try to set the .type of the underlying PedDisk object, which is readonly. I'd report this bug upstream but the captcha at https://admin.fedoraproject.org is unbeatable.

>>> disk = Disk(device=d)
>>> disk.type
'mac'
>>> disk.type = 'msdos'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/parted/disk.py", line 194, in <lambda>
    type = property(lambda s: s.__disk.type.name, lambda s, v: setattr(s.__disk, "type", parted.diskType[v]))
TypeError: readonly attribute

>>> ped= disk.getPedDisk()
>>> ped.type = parted.diskType['msdos']
Traceback (most recent call last):
