Title:
  Ubiquity partitioner warns of resize when no resize requested

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing the Ubuntu Gnome Saucy Alpha 1. I found that after choosing
  the existing ext4 partition for '/' (without choosing to resize or
  format the drive), the partitioner warns something like 'changing the
  size of partitions means the partitioner changes need writing to
  disk'. This is despite the fact that no change in partition size has
  been requested.

  A workaround is to avoid clicking the 'Continue' button (I was scared
  to think what would happen) but click the other button (possibly
  'Return'). Then it succeeds in assigning the mount point anyway and
  you can proceed.
