Bug#582223: partman - Wants to overwrite swap partition/lv
Package: partman-basicfilesystems Version: 63 Severity: serious partman wants to overwrite the swap partitions on a already setup machine. As swap partition can contain hibernation data, this is an data-destroying operation.

As swap partition can contain hibernation data, this is an data-destroying operation. Doing any system install while the system is in hibernation is asking for trouble and IMO is simply user error. I don't think we need to support that case.
