For a large part of its basic functionality & partman; relies on libparted. To generate UUIDs for copied file systems, it uses libuuid, which is part of e2fsprogs. It also uses the libblkid library from the util-linux-ng project to obtain information about partitions and file systems. All of these are required to build or run & partman;.
