[Bug 1791055] [NEW] Manually partitioning a volume results in a crash

[Jon "The Nice Guy" Spriggs]

Public bug reported:

I am performing an install of Kubuntu 18.04 on an EEEPC 701 with 2GB
RAM. The SSD isn't large enough to perform the install (4GB), so I have
installed an external SD Card. On the partitioning page, I selected
manual partitioning, and then configured the following:

````
/dev/sda1 - 1024MB /boot ext4 (Format auto-selected)
/dev/sda2 - 2974MB swap
/dev/sdb1 - 31913MB / ext4 (Format not selected)
````

When ticking the Format box, I got the following result:

````
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/PartitionModel.py", line 66, in setData
item.partman_column_format_toggled(value.toBool())
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'toBool'
````

At this point, the installer halts.

I was able to work around this by manually partitioning disks (using
kdisks). I was then able to "Change" the partitions to enable the
formatting there.
