Bug Description

Lubuntu installation on
- dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350)

Lubuntu 21.04 is now EOL; so I'm replacing it with the new jammy release on this box. Install testcase is "Install using existing partition" which is
- selecting the partition to install to
- no format is used

** Expected Outcome

Ubuntu 21.04 will be replaced by 22.04, so Current picture in calamares Overview summary will say 21.04; but the After image will say 22.04 or what I'll be installing.

** Actual Outcome

Ubuntu 21.04 is shown as the Current setup, and my After image too.

** Suspicion

I suspect the issue is NO-FORMAT flag of partition causes this to occur. Given I only replace OSes rather rarely (most installs are clean; or over prior versions of the same release) the change of releases isn't that often.
