lubuntu/trusty/i386 missing btrfs-tools and hence fails to create btrfs filesystem

[Robert Finley]

I am testing the lubuntu-desktop 14.04.1 img in a Vbox VM and during manual partitioning it has failed repeatedly to create a btrfs partition. The partition scheme attempted was

499mb ext2 /boot
4764mb btrfs /
1023 swap

works fine with the alternate installer

my guess is that 4764 is insufficient for successful lubuntu installation from desktop image. During installation, we use a bit more space and then clean-up and remove things in the end. Thus whilst minimal install size is the same, during installation we need a bit more.

Can you please file the bug report with $ ubuntu-bug ubiquity, from that live session of the failed installation?

Otherwise please attach:
* syslog
* partman log
* /var/log/installer

I am in the live session right now and I have increased the hdd space
and still recreated the bug (#1347345). When I type "ubuntu-bug
ubiquity" I get "This is not an official Ubuntu package. Please remove
any third party package and try again."

btrfs-tools is not seeded on lubuntu desktop 32bit
