Title:
  [Lucid] Kubuntu 64 manual partitioning opens "edit partiton" on first
  click (annoying)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Installing Kubuntu 64 to a VM using manual partitioning.  This is
  ubiquity 2.2.7.

  Expected Results:
  Clicking on an existing partition in partman highlights that partition
  Clicking on an already highlighted partition opens the partition editor
  Double-Clicking on a NON-highlighted partition opens the partition editor

  Observed Results:
  Single click on any existing partition opens the partition editor.

  This is a big annoyance.  In this scenario, I have an existing os and
  want to remove it completely, and install Kubuntu 64bit.  I also want
  to do manual partitioning since I want a separate home directory.

  So, I choose manual partitioning and partman loads.

  The first thing I want to do is delete my old root partition.  I click
  ONE TIME on that partition.  Partition editor opens.  I have to now
  close partition editor so I can click the Delete button to delete the
  old root partition.

  Next, I want to delete my old swap partition.  I click ONE TIME on
  that partition.  Partition editor opens. I have to now close partition
  editor so I can click Delete.

  This happens every time and makes manual partitioning a bit of a
  hassle.  The editor should only open up if I A: double click any
  partition, B: single click one that's already highlighted, or C: Click
  the Edit button after highlighting a partition with a single click.
