After the switch to hfsplus-tools in bug #364233 I realized that Fedora renames the standard hfsplus-tools executables. Specifically, newfs_hfs is renamed to mkfs.hfsplus and fsck_hfs is renamed to fsck.hfsplus I've opened a request in Fedora bugzilla for using symlinks instead of renaming executables, but I then realized that other distributions like Ubuntu and Debian are using mkfs.hfsplus and fsck.hfsplus commands, so maybe would be better if partitionmanager checks if those commands are present in the system and uses those instead of native names? Reproducible: Always
Yeah, I think I'll switch it so symlinks. I also didn't realize that other distributions just rename executables instead of using symlinks. Thanks for the report.
Do you think make sense to switch HFS to the same utilities away from hfsutils?

Some distributions rename those commands to mkfs.hfsplus and fsck.hfsplus. M +2 -2 src/fs/hfsplus.cpp http://commits.kde.org/kpmcore/aa5daf03786a3eb2a8ca783868f2d2ddd869e1ac
