KDE Partition Manager is a utility program to help you manage the disk devices, partitions and file systems on your computer. It allows you to easily create, copy, move, delete, resize without losing data, backup and restore partitions.
KDE Partition Manager supports a large number of file systems, including ext2/3/4, reiserfs, NTFS, FAT16/32, jfs, xfs and more.
It makes use of external programs to get its job done, so you might have to install additional software (preferably packages from your distribution) to make use of all features and get full support for all file systems.
KDE Partition Manager is also available as a bootable Live CD.
Follow development and have a look at some preview screenshots of the upcoming feature release on http://blog.volker-lanz.de.

1.0.3
=====
Make sure available and used capacity are not printed in a partition's properties dialog if they are not known
Make sure fsck.msdos does not want to modify a file system when it is being called to read the file system usage
Warn the user when trying to overwrite an existing partition with another or an image file
Clear the clipboard if undoing an operation deleted the partition that was in it
Keep the current UUID when resizing a swap partition
Fix the build by explicitly linking the partition manager executable against the KDE libs it uses
Do not allow pasting a source partition on a bigger target partition when the source partition's file system cannot be grown to fill the target partition
1.0.2
=====
* Copy a file system's UUID to the copied file system when creating a file system from another one.
* Implement a workaround for a libparted bug that makes it sometimes fail to commit changes to the OS in versions earlier than 2.2.
* Update the partition's file system and re-check for constraints if the partition's role is changed in the "Create New Partition" dialog. This fixes a bug where the user was not able to grow an extended partition if he'd previously selected a file system that cannot grow beyond a certain size.
* Always use the correct icons in modified ok/cancel buttons in dialogs and message boxes
* Fix a crash when operations to create, resize and delete an extended partitions where incorrectly merged into one (bug 232092)

Is it still being developed by anyone or is it just left to wither on the dev fine?
Sure there is always gparted, but why on a pure KDE system?
I get the same errors that everyone else is getting since parted is at v3...
I even tried building it against parted v2.4 and it still will not build.
The other suggestion to use the svn build is worthless and does not work at all and can not find any disks on my system.
Help this was a great program!!!

is it possible to add an option to open only one device, like --device=/dev/sda
I'm using this in an environment where devices are presented as single directories, and for non partitioned devices I would like to add the option "open with partitionmanager" to the right clickmenu, and then it would be very nice that partitionmanager open with only one device.

makes simplyMepis installer unusable (one needs to use another distro installer like kubuntu's one to properly resize partitions).
gparted is still the best choice for the linux OS

If you really care about the subject matter, please read:
http://blog.volker-lanz.de/2010/05/30/new-in-kde-partition-manager-1-1-iii-support-for-4096-byte-sectors/
This article discusses why what you encounter currently happens (in 1.0.x) and why that's the expected behaviour. It also gives an overview on why and how that will change in future versions.

Only happened that partitions had been disorderly, and I have not found how to order them from the program. Is it possible?
I had to do it from console with fdisk (extra functionality-experts only(x), and fix partition order (f)). It would be nice an option to do it with KDE Partition Manager.
Thanks!

Why did you need to do that? The order of partition table entries usually does not matter.
