Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

ubiquity can be minimized during the install. If this is done outside of the Live CD mode, there is no taskbar and thus no obvious way to bring the window back. (It can be restored via alt-tab but this is not easily discoverable.)

The minimize button in the upper left is visible and enabled and quite inviting to clicks, leading to confusing results.

Observed on maverick mythbuntu-desktop-i386 20100831.1

ubiquity (2.3.16) maverick; urgency=low

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Don't show logout option in only-ubiquity mode(s) (LP: #618744)
  * Don't show a minimize option in only-ubiquity mode(s) (LP: #627656)
  * Translate the page_title of the language page when languages are
    swapped.
  * Restore functionality to set the GTK slideshow size based on a
    configuration file that was lost in r4123.1.37.
  * Parse the slideshow size when the GTK frontend first starts to
    prevent the window resizing later.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: grub-installer
    1.55ubuntu1, partman-basicfilesystems 63ubuntu7, partman-efi
    21ubuntu1.

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Do not generate or show the bootloader options if we're on x86, or
    bootloader installation is explicitly disabled (LP: #628582).
  * Add correct URL for the Geonames service.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Remove a number of unused or duplicate imports.
