[Bug 1931146] Re: installer crash on manual partitioning when using encryption

When I manually create the luks partition and label it as such ubiquity
crashes when I then try to setup /boot.  If I setup /boot first it does
not crash and I can then assign a crypto partition. But that's it. The
installer will not let me do anything else with a crypo partition.  If I
cannot choose it as / then I can't install to it.

I tried clicking install now after assigning /boot and crypto but
nothing happens.

Also, after doing the above steps if I click Back the installer crashes
with 'An error occurred while creating the keyfile.'

Title:
  installer crash on manual partitioning when using encryption

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am attempting a fresh install on a dual boot setup.  currently using
  windows 10 and Kubuntu 20.04. I am also using LUKS but the installer
  doesn't really seem to support it--even the old manual setup-- so I
  might have to downgrade to 20.10.

  I have existing partitions so I choose manual but when I attempt to
  assign partitions and tell the system to format it crashes.  In this
  case I  was assigning /boot as a plain partition with nothing special
  and when clicking OK it crashes.  I don't even get to the Install Now
  button.  it crashes editing the /boot partition.
