Title:
Manual partitioning requires "esp" flag on /boot/efi partition, but
that flag isn't offered as an option, and the "boot" flag mysterious
makes the warning go away
Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Installing Lubuntu 20.04.
Opted for manual partitioning of my disks.
Created a /boot/efi partition with no flags.
After hitting NEXT from the partioning screen, I see a "What is your
name?" screen, but a dialog box pops up with an warning.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Title: EFI system partition flag not set
Contents:
An EFI System partition is necessary to start Lubuntu
A partion was configured with mount point /boot/efi but its esp flag
was not set.
To set the flag, go back and edit the partition.
You can continue without setting the flag but your system may fail to start.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
But going back, "esp" isn't one of the available flags offered on the "Create
a Partition" dialog.
I tried setting the "boot" flag for /boot/efi instead, and I was able to pass
through to the next screen without seeing that warning.
If I remove the "boot" flag for /boot/efi, the warning is displayed
again.
I'm guessing that the "esp" flag requirement is outdated, and it
should be changed to a "boot" flag requirement. Probably the wording
of this dialog box needs to change.
As it stands, it is very confusing.
