ubiquity (2.11.17) quantal; urgency=low

  * ubiquity/plugins/ubi-partman.py: Remove a stray comma, which broke this
    plugin.
  * Parse a compact representation of keyboard layouts and variants on the
    fly, rather than building them all into a giant static Python module.
    This is much more memory-efficient.
