Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubiquity

When selecting install Ubuntu from the boot menu, only the installer starts on the graphical environment. As there is no panel and task manager, the minimize button should be deactivated (or maybe the window should not be movable at all), as the window can disappear in such action (of course Alt+Tab can bring it back).

  * Change --no-continue option to a more general --only option for use
    in only-ubiquity and automatic-ubiquity modes.
  * Disable the minimize button when using --only (LP: #200034).
  * Properly return in debconf progress functions in the noninteractive
    frontend. Thanks Colin Watson.
  * Print progress updates on a new line again in the noninteractive
    frontend.
  * When clicking back from the advanced partitioner, go back to the first
    partitioning page rather than the keyboard page. Thanks Jonathan
    Riddell.
  * Remove dead code for the old resize widget.
  * Fix printing of non-latin text in the noninteractive frontend.
  * bin/ubiquity-dm: Set groups in drop_privileges.
  * Use the proper username and full name in oem_config mode for the
    noninteractive frontend.
  * Exit on failure to commit to the partition table in the noninteractive
    frontend.
  * Move the spawning of the noninteractive frontend when the noninteractive
    kernel cmdline option is present out of casper and into debian/init.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: choose-mirror
    2.19ubuntu3, localechooser 1.42ubuntu3, partman-auto 73ubuntu6,
    partman-base 114ubuntu4, partman-partitioning 54ubuntu5.

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Set OVERRIDE_SHOW_ALL_LANGUAGES while calling localechooser, so that
    even languages with complex scripts are displayed (LP: #202291).
  * Run fontconfig-voodoo as root (LP: #203086).

  [ Luke Yelavich ]
  * bin/ubiquity-dm: Set the GTK_MODULES environment variable only when
    at-spi-registryd is loaded.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Set proper path to change permissions of vnc files. (LP: #204985)
  * Use newer nvidia syntax in xorg.conf.

  [ Jonathan Riddell ]
  * kde_ui: changes for UBIQUITY_ONLY mode, don't offer a no-reboot method at
    end of install, and hide minimise button on window frame.
  * kde_ui: Fixes to the button icons
