Title:
  Ubiquity shows one partition will be removed when no partitions exist
  on the selected drive

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm testing the Ubuntu GNOME 20140121.1 amd64 image and selecting
  "entire disc" with two existing discs shows that one partition will be
  removed even though no partitions exist on the selected drive:
