Installer crashed after changing time

[Matthew Garrett]

In the timezone screen, I selected London. I then selected "Change time", and put the clock back by an hour (the UI didn't make it clear what I should be doing about having the clock in GMT). Closing the time preferences reset the time, and the installer then crashed.

Thanks for your bug report. This is probably related to, if not a duplicate of bug #41846

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

This may well be a different bug. Matthew, did you get a crash dialog with a backtrace?

[Matthew Garrett (mjg59)]

Yes, but I'm afraid I didn't record it. I'll see if I can reproduce it
later on.

This might be a duplicate of bug 41109, although I'm not sure yet.

I think this is the appropriate traceback - it may actually have occured after clicking forward, in which case it could well be a duplicate of 41846:

Ok, it is duplicate of bug 41921
