Bug Description
When asking about the new size of a partition, the installer says that
percentages are interpreted as fractions of the "free space". I think it means
fractions of the size of the partition.

It has been a while since I last installed Ubuntu while keeping a Windows partition. Yet I can confirm the partition questions were strangely worded. For example, the installer asked for "New partition size" and maybe because I'm not a native English speaker but I had no idea if it meant "Size of the new partition (the new partition created for Linux)" or "New size of the partition (the resized Windows partition)".
