ubiquity hangs waiting for partman

[nandhp]

While running ubiquity installer from the Edgy Knot 3 Live CD, after reaching the disk partitioning stage a message box appears saying "The resize operation is impossible". When I click next, partman then appears to go into an infinite loop asking parted-server for a list of all available partitions, repeatedly, until I kill the partman process, at which point ubiquity proceeds to the manual partition editor. The /var/log/partman file grows very rapidly while it's doing this.

Thanks for your report. This is also bug 58500, and is fixed in ubiquity 1.1.21.

The above is also true for edgy beta. I think for edgy beta it is more 50/50 that suspend comes back in fulness with both the display and keyboard working.
