I think you are mistaken. There still is an option to automatically
partition using free space on a harddisk.
Does that only show up when free space is available? That would
explain why I haven't seen it when I tried the yesterday's daily.
Also, I fixed a huge load of bugs in partman recently, we gained support
for crypto and LVM had a major rewrite (thanks to Max and David). So
partman is not totally unmaintained either.
I know about those, but I said "actively maintained" and was referring
also the the rest of the partman code base, Anton's work ;-) , which I
think is fair to say it is not "actively mainainted" (which can be
seen quite clearly, IMHO, when looking at the age of partman's bugs).
