Title:
  Ubuntu 22.04.1 installation "forgets" to remove swap partition (of
  16.04)

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I installed Ubuntu 22.04.1 on a disk that contained 16.04.
  During the installation I selected "Overwrite 16.04" (it was named similarly).
  The installation worked fine except for one thing:

  The swap partition of 16.04 was not deleted, even though Ubuntu 22.04
  uses a swap file and not a swap partition. So the swap partition
  wastes disk space.

  The problem description probably applies to all Ubuntu versions (or
  Linux distributions?) that include a swap partition (hint: does an LTS
  upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 keep the swap partition from 16.04?).
