[Bug 769350] Re: resized partition size doesn't count swap space size.

[Steve Langasek]

It's too late in the cycle to move to swap files for oneiric, and that
wouldn't help for natty-updates anyway (which also has a bug target
here).  Evan, can we do something here to make sure users don't get this
"insufficient space" error after already repartitioning?

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  See the attached screenshots.  During a guided, install along side test I moved the slider bar all the way to the right.  According to the Ubiquity U/I I was using 2.7 GB, but I got an error it was too small and neede at least 2.1 GB.  After I got bounced back to the manual partitioner (I think this is bug #218694) the empty space was, indeed less than 2.1 GB and not matched to what the slider told me I'd get.
