  * Avoid starting cardmgr while running hw-detect.
  * Remove old partman state each time the installer is started.
  * Rearrange partman component control flow to set the default resize
    slider position straight away rather than waiting until the resize
    option is selected (closes: Malone #39062).
  * Round default resize slider position up rather than down.
  * GTK frontend:
    - Show % indicator on resize slider.
  * Display the actual new partition size as well as the percentage of the
    existing size on the resize slider.
  * Add/update .desktop file translations from Rosetta: Breton, French,
    Indonesian, Slovenian.
