Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
During manual partitioning, I right-click an entry and choose "Edit". I leave the partition size unchanged, but I change the name of the mount point from "/media/hda3" to "/". On closing the dialog with Ok, I get a warning dialog titled "Write previous changes to disk and continue", with the text referring to a resize operation which I haven't requested.
The expected behaviour is not to warn of a resize operation when the partition size has not been changed in the previous dialog.
When selecting "Go Back" in this dialog, the mount point change is carried out anyhow.
The expected behaviour is for the "Go Back" button in the warning dialog to undo all changes from the "Edit Partition" dialog.
When selecting "Continue" instead of "Go Back", a dialog pops up with the warning "Invalid size". Since no change has been requested, the default size that the "Edit Partition" dialog returns should not be invalid.
