Jaunty kubuntu ubiquity won't manually edit partitions; creates swap wrong

[naught101]

Binary package hint: ubiquity-frontend-kde

Basically, I have a fairly standard setup like:
/dev/sda1 / 8gb
/dev/sda2 swap 1.5gb
/dev/sda3 /home 40gb

I downloaded the Kubuntu daily live ISO (20081218.2), and tried the installer, but I couldn't edit partitions (no dialogue box came up when I clicked edit, either from the button down the bottom, or the right-click menu).

Also, I tried to simply delete and replace sda1 and sda2, thinking I could manually set up /home after the install. This worked ok for the root partition, but when I created the swap partition, it set the mount point as /home. again, I couldn't manually edit it.

I'm having this very same issue on my Dell Lattitude D830 with Kubuntu Jaunty Alpha 2

I also get this on the January 13th build of the Xubuntu live cd. There is no way to edit existing partitions.

Confirmed for 20090114 build. (kubuntu amd64)

I tested the Kubuntu 9.04 Alpha 3 (desktop CD x86).
This bug is fixed.

This time I downloaded the alternative installer so I did not test, but if you say so I'm closing this bug and I am going to test it when when alpha 4 comes out.
