Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce : - get Ubuntu 13.10 (i386) installed - boot on Ubuntu 14.04 (x64) live usb - choose "other" in install type, and choose Ubuntu 13.10 as /, without formating - install
Results : - wait several minutes (5 to 10) that something save the previous installed packages - wait some minutes (2 to 5) the normal installation - wait additional minutes (2 to 5) that ubiquity fails to reinstall any of the previous installed packages Expected results : - get the selection of packages quickly (1 minute max) - detect if the is a arch incompatibility (32 versus 64 bits) - or remove the useless function if it doesn't work in any cases.
