ubiquity causes many nautilus windows to open when scaning for migrate settings

[sam tygier]

when running ubiquity from the 20080126 hardy live cd, for the migrating settings part it likes to mount all my partitions.

this causes nautilus to open a new window for each partition (i have about 15 across 2 disks)

this is rather annoying

just to note this occurred in the same attempt to install as Bug #186147

* Changing Status to confirmed *
 I can confirm this on the 25th and 26th daily-live cd.

using alpha4 the problem did not happen. though by the end off the install i have several partitions mounted. no nautilus windows were opened.

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ mount

sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
tmpfs on /lib/modules/2.6.24-5-generic/volatile type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)

i will attach syslog and partman for this run

Evan fixed this in ubiquity 1.7.5:

ubiquity (1.7.5) hardy; urgency=low

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Add accessibility support to 'only-ubiquity'.
  * Move noninteractive frontend to a purely gobject-based event loop
    (LP: #149477).
  * Noninteractive mode now implies --automatic (LP: #149473).
  * Add new nautilus gconf keys to the list we temporarily disable to
    prevent constant pop-ups.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: console-setup
    1.21ubuntu2, migration-assistant 0.6.0, partman-target 52ubuntu3,
    user-setup 1.16ubuntu3.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Add proper theme support to mythbuntu FE.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Update console-setup component for layout and variant changes in
    console-setup 1.21ubuntu1.
  * Run fontconfig-voodoo with --force.
  * Call 'fontconfig-voodoo --auto --force --quiet' when the language is
    changed. May help with LP #185269.
