Title:
  Ubuntu messes up Kubuntu installation

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When installing Ubuntu 12.10 next to Kubuntu 12.10 it messes up whole
  Kubuntu system by moving whole system root to a directory named "@"
  and home folder to "@home", /var/lib remains as only directory on root
  partition but it is empty (no hidden files). When installing Kubuntu
  next to Ubuntu the same problem occurs. Attached file is created by
  ubiquity in /ubiquity-apt-clone. I want to use both, Kubuntu and
  Ubuntu, but that is not possible because many files can not be moved
  back to system root on the partition (mostly in /dev). That is really
  disturbing.

  I'm using btrfs as file system on both partitions. Both partitions are
  on the same disk. /dev/sda1 is ntfs, /dev/sda5 is swap, /dev/sda6 is
  Ubuntu and /dev/sda7 Kubuntu. I want the freedom to use both, not
  being restricted by Ubuntu to be able to use only one flavor of
  Ubuntu. If it was Fedora on the partition I could understand that
  somehow but another Ubuntu flavor? Why? That always worked, why was
  Ubiquity changed to do such a mess?
