Bug Description
ubiquity builds the initramfs after copying the live filesystem, but before removing casper.
One consequence of this is that /conf.d/compcache is left around in the installed system's initramfs, resulting in an installed system with compcache enabled. This is unexpected: compcache should only be used by the live CD, or if the user explicitly sets a compcache size in initramfs.conf.

This bug appears to extend beyond live cd systems. I have a system that I installed from the minimal iso and then installed other packages using a script (crunchbang) and compcache creates a swap space of about 512M.
