Maybe you _meant_ to ask me that, but what you actually wrote was 


  Could you please file this as a bug report in Bugzilla, on the
  component 'partman-lvm'? Please also attach /var/log/syslog,
  /var/log/messages, and /var/log/partman from the installer (once
  you've finished the install, these files live in /var/log/installer/
  instead).

In the absence of specifics (which I requested), I had to assume that
the bug should be filed in the same place as the other bug you
mentioned:

Okay, I can do that.

So do you want me to refile at bugzilla.ubuntu.com ?
