Comment 2 James Laska 2009-05-21 20:07:21 UTC 
Encountered while testing https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_Anaconda_autopart_(shrink)_install

1) Perform an @base install with:
   '/' ext3 --grow
   '/boot' ext3
   swap

2) Initiate a new install
3) Choose resize existing partition
4) Check "review partitions"
5) Select previous '/' (ext3) for resize
6) Select previous swap partition, and attempt to format as swap

Comment 7 Oliver Henshaw 2009-07-06 16:18:11 UTC 
The above traceback was triggered by an attempt to increase the size of a partition even though anaconda had already allocated all unpartitioned space.

I'm not sure how similar this is to the bug that this bug is duplicated to. I'm completely ignorant of anaconda's workings, but I wonder if bugs/tracebacks are being organised according to their symptoms, rather than their causes.
