From 35ca51182782193f555fbdcb06bb10766550d017 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2016 12:43:10 +0100
Subject: [PATCH] sfdisk: support empty label use-case
By default sfdisk creates partition table when a first partition is
specified, otherwise the device is not modified. This force users to
create at least one partition.
This commit allows to create empty label without partitions if "label:
<name>" header line is specified by script.
The commit also modifies "New situation:" output to list label name
and label identifier.
Addresses: https://github.com/karelzak/util-linux/issues/374
