Bug#793426: Debian 8.1 - missing separate /usr in guided encrypted LVM partitioning scheme

[Patryk Hanckowiak <pathanck@gmail.com>]

Maybe this should be reported under: 'installation-reports' and not 
debian-installer as I did. Debian bug reporting seems a bit confusing.

I still think it's a bug - I can't install a usable Debian desktop 
system, but call it whatever you like - feature request, or something 
else :)

But OK - there are several issues here:
1) Why did the /usr partition get removed from the separate /var, /tmp, 
/home guided encrypted LVM installation option?
It might be that when it got removed, it caused the other problem:
2) The partitioning scheme allocates wrong partition sizes for a desktop 
computer.

I have also tested the separate /home option. The same problem: / (root) 
is allocated too little disk space.

It is not uncommon to have more than 10 GB in /usr. For example, try 
installing KDE + GNOME with less than 10 GB. A desktop user might want 
to do this.

In the two installation options I described, /usr is part of / (root) 
and / (root) is 10 GB or less.

I haven't tested the encrypted LVM + everything on one partition option. 
It probably would work in that case, as only /boot and / is created in 
that case.
