Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu: Invalid

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity

In recent lucid builds, the partition dialog doesn't show any partitions in the "SegmentedBar" at the top.
Another related issue is that the user gets no longer warned about overwriting already installed OSes.

These problems are due to a change in the combobox-entries where you get to choose the device to install Ubuntu on. The mentioned functionality seems to depend on the text of those entries.

Find attached a patch that fixes the issues for me.
