Bug#725371: partman-ext3: Can't change mount options for ext4



Package: partman-ext3
Version: 79
Severity: normal
Tags: d-i

Dear Maintainer,

I was installing Debian Jessie from the following ISO:

     Debian GNU/Linux testing "Jessie" - Official Snapshot amd64 xfce-CD
                           Binary-1 20130930-05:46

(text grabbed from README.txt on the cdrom)

When attempting to choose the "Mount Options:" menu item for an ext4 partition
while manually partitioning my drive, I noticed that the checkbox menu that
allows the selection of mount options for other partition types (ext3, for
example) does not appear.

Instead, the screen blinks white real quick then returns to the menu for
modifying that particular partition with the same "Mount Options:" menu option
selected.

It's possible I have done something wrong up to this point, but as far as I can
tell the option checklist should appear just as it does for ext3 for example.

It is possible that this is more directly related to partman-base, but I chose
to report against partman-ext3 since it is specifically the ext4 menu option
that seems broken. Let me know if there is any other information I can get or
anything else I can do to help out.
