GParted News Item 224
29 May 2019: GParted 1.0.0

This release of GParted includes a significant undertaking to migrate the code base from gtkmm2 to gtkmm3 (our GTK3 port). Thanks go to Luca Bacci and Mike Fleetwood for making this happen.

With this major change we bump up the major version number. This 1.0.0 release is not meant to indicate that GParted is more stable or less stable than before. Instead it means that GParted now requires gtkmm3 instead of gtkmm2. Note that several other dependencies have changed as well.

As with our other releases, this one also includes several enhancements, bug fixes and language translation updates.

Key changes include:
Port to Gtkmm 3
Port to GNOME 3 yelp-tools documentation infrastructure
Enable online resizing of extended partitions
Add F2FS support for read disk usage, grow, and check
Fix slow refreshing of NTFS file systems
See the Release Notes for more details.

No it's not in the Ubuntu or Debian repos yet, only can be compiled from source at this time (version 1.0.0).

You could try the Slackware Current build if you are desperate - remembering that 64 bit systems vary in their lib64 architecture....
