GUI does not allow changes to 'Free Space Before' when in resize window

[iclestu]

Binary package hint: partitionmanager

See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1770328

When attempting to resize a partition to take up unallocated space before the partition the gui would not allow me to use the up and down arrows at 'Free Space Before' field nor would it allow manually typed changes to this field. In either case the other fields did not 'recalculate' and update and the 'OK' box remained greyed-out.

Dragging the edge of partition's the graphical display worked as expected.

using kubuntu 11.04 in the live CD mode

Output of "apt-cache policy partitionmanager":

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
