Title:
  Ubiquity crashes installing to encrypted partition

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Attempting to install Ubuntu 14.10 alongside Windows 8.1 on a Lenovo
  Y50-70.  Want / and swap to be encrypted.  Used gparted to resize the
  main Windows 8.1 partition to make space for Ubuntu, then started
  ubiquity.

  Chose "something else" partitioning because the "encrypt" and "use
  lvm" checkboxes are greyed out when "install Ubuntu alongside Windows
  Boot Manager" is selected.  Created an ext2 partition of 512Mb for
  /boot in the free space.  Created an encrypted partition.  Noticed
  that it automatically created an ext4 filesystem within this, so
  clicked "Revert" which got rid of the ext4 filesystem but left the
  /dev/mapper/sda9_crypt device in place.  Clicked "New Partition Table"
  on this, which appeared to work, and then created swap and ext4 root
  filesystem within it.

  Ubiquity crashed on clicking Install Now.
