Bug Description
When installing Kubuntu 18.10, I was attempting to re-use and format my previous root partition in the manual partitioner. However after exiting out of the "Change..." menu, I realized I forgot to set the partition to be formatted, so I checked the box next to it, causing Ubiquity to crash.
From what I can tell of a cursory glance of the traceback, it appears to specifically be a bug in the KDE frontend.
