Comments/Problems:
A couple of issues:
The display of partition sizes appears to be all screwed up (see the
first attached screenshot).
Attempt to mount /dev/sdb2 as / on /target fails with "invalid
argument" (see second attached screenshot). My guess is that it
happens because mount gets an argument -t ext3, while the partition is
ext4, and mounts fine from the shell if I do not specify a type
argument. Perhaps, mke2fs default has changed without installer being
aware of it?
Best regards,

* Use 'dh $@ --options' rather than 'dh --options $@', for
forward-compatibility with debhelper v8.
* If the PED_DISK_CYLINDER_ALIGNMENT flag isn't available, then
(confusingly) assume that only cylinder alignment is available and
calculate constraints accordingly (closes: #579948).
