Title:
  ubiquity does not free a swap partition

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have chosen a manual partitioning and wanted to format my old swap
  as an ext3 partition. When last step of configuration was finished,
  the installer said about error creating ext3 on that partition. I have
  found that LiveCD boot has detected a swap partition on my hdd, and is
  using it. Swapoff for this partition has let me to perform the
  installation.

  So the bug actually:
  ubiquity must perform swapoff for all swaps used (however for all which are touched during partitioning).

  Ubuntu 8.04 i386 Desktop
