partman log is very verbose and it's not entirely clear to me what
layout you had before the install, what install you have chosen and what
happened afterwards.
Partman is showing two disks /dev/sda and /dev/sdb in the beginning.
What did you perform manual partitioning using "something else" option?
Or did you select of the pre-defined options (resize, wipe & install,
upgrade)? How did you encrypt swap?

Title:
13.04 installation has damaged my luks partition
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Some days ago I've installed ubuntu 13.04 beta2 release on a clean
partition I had.
I've chosen in the installer to not touch my home partition as it's
encrypted and I doubted it would not understand that.
I chose the root partition and asked to encrypt my swap partition.
After installation I couldn't open my home partition any more. It keep
saying:
hugo at scare:~$ sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/ubuntu/home home_crypt
Device /dev/ubuntu/home is not a valid LUKS device.
I don't know what the installer thought about my partition but I expected it to not touch that.
I am still trying to not go crazy about it but I didn't have the luks partition header on my backups and I have almost zero hope on recovering that. I just expect it to be fixed in a near future.
It seems ubuntu installer still has little support for lvm+luks
partitions on installer.
