This bug was fixed in the package partman-base - 206ubuntu1
---------------
partman-base (206ubuntu1) disco; urgency=medium
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Ubiquity integration: If PARTMAN_NO_COMMIT is set, then exit rather
than running commit.d and finish.d scripts; add a partman-commit
script; dump extra information to /var/lib/partman/snoop if
PARTMAN_SNOOP is set; check for per-menu 'no_show_choices' file in
ask_user and don't reshow the menu if it exists.
- Don't skip over dmraid devices if the user chooses not to activate
them.
- If the only thing mounted on a disk is the installation medium and it
uses more or less the whole disk, then silently exclude that disk; if
the installation medium is mounted but doesn't use the whole disk,
issue a warning that partitioning may be difficult; if anything else
is mounted, offer to unmount it. partman/filter_mounted=false disables
this.
- debian/control: replace harddrive-detection Depends with the specific
disk-detect version needed (>= 1.95ubuntu4) to support multipath-tools
0.5.0. There are no other harddrive-detection providers yet anyway.
- Multipath support:
- lib/base.sh: is_multipath_part(): Use 'p' (not '-part') as multipath
disk-partition separator.
- lib/base.sh: humandev(): Accept spaces in multipath WWID.
- init.d/parted: part_of_multipath(): Update grep expression for more
recent output of 'multipath -l'.
- lib/base.sh: drop the p separator for multipath partitions

Bug description:
Ubuntu Desktop Disco amd64
Last known good version: ubiquity 19.04.5
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.
Manual installation with Ubiquity fails too with the same error.
Test Case:
1. Boot to the live session
2. Launch Ubiquity
3. Press 'Next' on all the steps keeping the default
Actual Result:
You cannot go beyond the 'Updates and Other software' page.
