Ok, it is late, but I guess this is a real use-case that might be good
to handle - especially for an LTS. Realistically though we won't be able
to get it translated in time, as the langpack deadline is Thursday...
Anyway, +1.

Title:
[FFe] Tell users they need to disable BitLocker if it's detected
Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
[ Description ]
If you've got a system which only has a Windows drive which is
encrypted using BitLocker, we can't resize it so you can install
Ubuntu.
The plan is to show a user interface directing users to a website
where they can view instructions telling them what to do.
[ Test case ]
On a system with Windows 10 installed, and BitLocker enabled (try both
with and without a TPM), try to install. You should see the 'install
alongside' option, and if you pick that one you should get the new UI.
You should also see the 'erase and install' option, which should work.
You'll see the advanced partitioner which won't be able to do anything
with the BitLocker partitions.
On a system with Windows 10 installed and BitLocker *disabled*, there
should be no change: if you can or can't resize & install currently,
that'll be the same after this update.
This is only implemented for the GTK frontend, so make sure the KDE
one behaves the same as it did before.
