Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

< astronut> wait, never mind, the dialog just got hidden... it's still at 0% after like 10 minutes
< sladen> astronut: if the dialogue isn't modal on-top, that's a bug
< astronut> i think i clicked on the install dialoge to bring it forward

The progress bar should remain above the installer (modal/child window).

All of the ubiquity dialogs are modal. I imagine he meant the entire set of ubiquity windows got buried, but if you're still in contact with him, please point him at this bug report so can he clarify.

Thanks!

I don't mess with launchpad so I can't change the status, but I
definitely got the main ubiquity window on top of the dialog. I was in
installer mode (not livecd) so there weren't any other windows anyway.

Benjamin, was this Ubuntu, Kubuntu, or something else? It just occurred to me that this is something I think I remember seeing with the KDE frontend.

Is this bug still valid? IIRC the partitioning progress is now included in the overall progress bar in the main window.
