Title:
  ubiquity does not work with kernels that have swapping disabled

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  /usr/share/ubiquity/plugininstall.py looks for /proc/swap and fails if
  a user uses a custom kernel that has no swapping enabled (i.e. on some
  custom arm bioards people use such a setup, which is admittedly a
  corner case but can happen)

  the function should properly return None if /proc/swap does not exist.
