Bug Description

When installing Xubuntu with the netboot image the installation fails at the 'select and install software step'. I'm able to select Xubuntu desktop succesfully, but the subsequent download/install fails.

Please let me know if there is a way to get more detailed information about what goes wrong.

Netboot images are using debian-installer, not ubiquity.

From my poor understanding of the locale in use, it's something to do with the fact that indicators were not installed. This is mostly harmless, and a known problem. I believe the seeds have been adjusted to not include packages which are temporarily not present in the archive.

I had not noticed the logs were in Dutch, sorry. The problem is indeed unmet dependencies, does this mean this bug will go away as new packages hit the archive?
