Bug Description

An unexpected "Install RELEASE" is present on my installed system after downloading and running as USB key the Ubuntu installer from https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you?country=DE&version=18.04.2&architecture=amd64

This is not a huge problem but it is confusing...

I found the suggestion to report a bug here (https://askubuntu.com/a/338952) relevant. I will not further track this bug and you can set it as "Will not fix" if you want, since I do not plan to install once again my system (next planned: Ubuntu 20.04) and I fixed my problem (by removing ubiquity).

However, it might be interesting to double check for the current version and coming 20.04.

Just for the context:

Now I can remember, that the installation encountered problems while trying to update the bootloader:

I could not go further retrying and/or skip (it was not frozen, but clicks did not have any effect) which is why I hardly switched off my computer at this point.

It might have avoid any post installation cleanup. If this is the case, then just ignore this bug.

Could you add /var/log/installer/ from the installed system to the bug?

Sorry. I do not have such a folder

Probably uninstalled as I used:
sudo apt remove --purge ubiquity

As a fix to remove the launcher
