Confirmed that this observation affects the Ubuntu Budgie 19.04 daily
build.  Ubiquity installer doesnt go beyond the "Updates and other
software" wizard in either live-session or normal install.

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Desktop Disco amd64

  Automated preseeded tests of Ubuntu Desktop Disco, started failing on
  Feb. 4th with this error in partman log:

  /bin/partman: *******************************************************
  /lib/partman/init.d/30parted: *******************************************************
  parted_server: ======= Starting the server
  parted_server: main_loop: iteration 1
  parted_server: Opening infifo
  /lib/partman/init.d/30parted: IN: OPEN =dev=vda /dev/vda
  parted_server: No data in infifo.
  parted_server: Line 2387. CRITICAL ERROR!!!  EXITING.

  /var/log/ and journal attached to this report.

  Maybe it's a coincidence but it started after the upload of partman-
  crypto.

  It only affects desktop installations, server (using the same testing
  infrastructure) are passing.
