When using the guided partitioning method, I am told

"The installer can guide you through partitioning a disk (using different "
"standard schemes) or, if you prefer, you can do it manually. With guided "
"partitioning you will still have a chance later to review and customise the "
"results."

But it's not possible to change the partition sizes afterwards.
Such changings after the guided partitioning would be IMHO the
mostly used (have the structure created, only customize the
partition sizes).
There were already some installation-reports where user commented,
that the automatically chosen swap size is too big, for example.
Would be great, if it could be possible, to change the size then.


Or the sentence above should be changed:
"With guided partitioning you will still have a chance later to review
the results and start partitioning again from the beginning, if needed."

I close this bug, since it is a duplicate of #575914.


Thanks
