Comment 80 for bug 577916

@ Daniel Hollocher:

This resume bug affects Ubuntu 10.04 _LTS_ installs however, ie. it will be there for years to come - possibly even in OEM installations - unless it is fixed with the fix preferably included in an upcoming CD/ISO refresh.

Looking at some of the manual solutions it might not be an insurmountable task to fix the installation logic and/or update the failed component(s). Unless Long Term Support only applies to security updates.

As Matteo pointed above, this bug can cause data loss and only the most advanced users are able to locate and implement the manual fix.
