Package: util-linux
Version: 2.12p-4
Severity: wishlist

Mkswap doesn't clear the first part of the partition it sets it signature on.
This can cause hal to misdetect a swap partition as something non-swap, which
can cause problems. When for example something tries to mount the swap
partition as a normal filesystem, based on that information
