'Available space' is *unpartitioned* space, not 'partitions that happen
to be empty'. Anaconda isn't about to assume it can just go ahead and
stick itself in any partition which doesn't currently contain any data.
That does not seem like a sensible thing to do. If you want to re-use an
existing partition, you have to tell anaconda that's what you want to
do.
