I see one reason for this to happen.  You specified a swap partition (or
d-i did this automatically for you) but then you tried the Guided
partitioning tool.  In order to start from clean state the first thing
this tool does is to set all partitions as unused.  Then you canceled
the autopartitioning tool and set mount points for the partitions in the
way you wanted.  The problem is that then you had to specify that you
want to use the swap space.

I am giving the following title to the cloned bug: "When the
autopartitioning tool is canceled it should restore the user settings". 
If you think that there is some other problem, please tell.
