subiquity got stuck after last-commands - final crash

[Thomas]

Running Ubuntu Server 20 LTS, also tested with the live daily version.

Log files show everything success, still the installer is at state "Installing ...".
"top" shows that subiquity uses CPU load - see attached top.txt file.
The log files from the installer are attached too.

Having fixed the stucked subiquity, now I got it crash.
The first issue seems to me is, that if a package cannot be found in the apt sources, subiquity hangs. The resolution was to add an "apt-get update" to the early-commands.

But now subiquity crashes when installing emacs - see attached crash dump.
When switching to another console (ctrl-alt F2) and installing emacs there: "apt-get install emacs" it works as expected.

The same crash happens when putting "kate" into the packages list - it crashes from the autoinstaller, but installes fine from the live console. But "sed" works fine from autoinstaller.
"emacs" and "kate" have a quite huge dependency list - could this be the reason?
