ubiquity: The 'install now' or 'continue' button is stuck greyed out if you select "Go back" in the window that pops up detailing partition changes #52

(this was tested on both Cinnamon and XFCE)

  1. boot the live CD

  2. run the Mint installer

  3. when you get to the point that has the option to "Erase disk and install Vanessa", click "Install now"

  4. in the window that pops up notifying you of partition changes, click "go back"

  5. regardless of what option you select, the "Install now" or "Continue" button will be stuck greyed out

If you click back, then click "Continue", the options will no longer be greyed out... until you repeat steps 3 and 4, at which point the issue re-occurs:

I'm moving this ubiquity since it's a niche case and there's a workaround (go back one more page and forward again). The ubiquity code is a nightmare to work with..

self.controller.allow_go_forward(True) doesn't help (it actually goes forward), same with toggle_next_button..

This is all happening in ubi-partman.py but the code is awful.
