Public bug reported:

Choosing "physical volume for encryption" makes the installer GUI fail, using 
Lubuntu Next artful Alpha 1 image:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu-next/releases/artful/alpha-1/artful-desktop-amd64.iso


## Steps to reproduce

sudo swapoff -a   # avoid bug with 'unsafe swap'
cat /proc/swaps
ubiquity &

* [Continue] through Welcome and Wireless to Disk
* choose "Manual" then [Continue]
    - NB: this is reinstalling over existing partitions from a previous install
* select swap partition - [Change] - "do not use parititon"
    - also to avoid bug with 'unsafe swap'
* boot partition - change - "Ext4" - check format - "/boot"
* main partition - change - "physical volume for encryption"
* click Install

This does NOTHING - the Install button just deselects itself when you
click it!


## attempt to change options to make Install button work...

This might be a secondary issue.

* reselect main partition - [Change]

Installer Crashed
