Title:
  xubuntu bionic daily; error restoring applications ; on a formatted
  partition?

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Xubuntu 18.04.5 daily QA-test install on
  dell [optiplex] 755 (c2d-e8300, 8gb, amd/ati radeon rv610/radeon hd2400 pro/xt)

  I removed the sda5 (second) partition, then used the free space to
  create new partition; installer indicated it'll be sda2 now..

  Error appearing during installation

  Error restoring installed applications
  An error occurred while restoring previously-installed applications.
  The installation will continue, but you may have to manually reinstall
  some applications after the computer reboots.

  This would fit maybe if I hadn't formatted the partition. I deleted
  and then re-created the partition that it was installing to, so this
  issue shouldn't exist I believe.
