Public bug reported:

When trying to combine 2 partitions during the installation of Ubuntu Gnome, I 
got the following message:
"Can't have a partition outside the disk!''

This message was stuck in a loop, so I couldn't continue or close the 
installation.
I combined the partitions by removing one of them, and incresing the size of 
the other partition to the max size. The second time I tried this, I calculated 
the maximum size of the new partition, and noticed this was 1MB smaller than 
the size ubiquity pruposed. 

This bug is probably caused by a rounding error.

Ubuntu release: 13.10
Ubiquity: 2.15.26
