Control: reassign -1 partman-base Control: forcemerge 778773 -1 Hi Gordon, and sorry for the lag before getting back to you. I had this issue flagged but haven't found time to work it. But some other bug report came up lately and some people had time to debug it!

See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=778773#55 and below if you want to read more about it. ;) This should be fixed with the upcoming RC2. And thanks for your report, by the way!
