Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a "regular" (non-security) bug.  I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

Title:
  Ubuntu live destroy my swap data

Status in partman-base package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have hibernated my linux on my swap partition to test "the new Ubuntu 14.10"
  Then the Ubuntu 14:10 uses my swap partition during boot without my confirmation and I lost all data on my linux hibernating.
  Please do not touch the user's hard disk without user authorization.

  thank you
