Bug Description

Lubuntu mantic install on
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 8gb amd/ati rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)
testcase: install using existing partition

continued exploration of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/2022287
this install will be over the last "error'd" install... sda6 from memory

so just Manual Partitioning, select SDA6 WITHOUT FORMAT! & GO.

This is POSSIBLY a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/2022287 ; that install completed successfully, and this is further exploration...

No format re-install of Lubuntu mantic (NO FORMAT) on that partition being purpose; I expected CLEAN re-install, but mention of SUBIQUITY-SERVER-INFO in ^ messages implies to be its likely a DUPLICATE

Note: those are packages I'd NOT expect on a Lubuntu install... so its probable stuff has been left behind..

I'm suspicious its related to ubuntu-desktop-installer GIVEN the subiquity-server messages above !!!

This was further exploration (Xubuntu mantic install onto other partition on box) & this install was booted to check it wasn't impacted by xubuntu.install; nope except it reported loads of package errors that caused my filing ^

There was another bug back when this install was UBUNTU-MATE possibly, though it wasn't noticed prior to release (I used RC for install prior to release for lunar installs), but subsequently it appears

Refer https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ayatana-indicator-messages/+bug/2021935 which was filed on 31-May ?? My bug report mentions a mantic install (where I non-format installed over lunar installs) but package report matches LUNAR?

Loads of issues so I'll need to start again with testing on this box...

CLEAN install & thus marking this incomplete..
