Bug Description

Several regular jenkins jobs that have been running some time began failing yesterday. ubiquity and debian-installer based images are affected. The message appearing is:
The username you have entered (root) is reserved for use by the system. Please select a different one.
The username in use in these preseeds is jenkins. I will attached one such preseed, a screenshot of the error in ubiquity, and a screenshot of a syslog from debian-installer. I am trying to recreate the bug in ubiquity on an active system and run apport.
