Title:
  karmic installer crashed during manual partition setup (complained
  about some partitions)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  First, manual partition setup is a pain in the ass because the window
  is much too small and I can't resize it.

  Before the crash the installer complained about the Vista partition
  and my /boot partition (ext2 on a USB stick), saying it had some
  invalid fs settings and tune2fs should be used.

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_ui.py", line 410, in <lambda>
      QTimer.singleShot(0, lambda: self.dbfilter.start(auto_process=True))
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/filteredcommand.py", line 87, in start
      self.db = DebconfCommunicator(PACKAGE, cloexec=True)
