Bug Description

Binary package hint: migration-assistant

I went through the feisty (Ubuntu 7.04: ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso) installer (downloaded 28 July 2007).

I got to the Migration Assistant page and it detected my Windows XP install. I did not check anything (I didn't want to migrate). I did use the drop down to see what information it would migrate. I did _not_ fill in the checkbox.

I got to the final page and it says information about the Migration Assistant, but not that I didn't use it.

It should either not say anything about the Migration Assistant or it should say that I opted not to use it. ("None selected" or the like.)

I think this bug should have the importance set to 'Wishlist'. And I am confirming this bug as this bug describes the current behaviour in Gutsy.

I am updating to Gutsy and the bug is slightly different.

Now it doesn't print the Windows stuff (that's good).

It says:

This is better, but it would be nice if it said something after "Migration Assistant", like "no migration".

This is no longer an issue as the installer does not have a finally summary page anymore.
