Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

UBUNTU lucid - KickStart
When I use a FTP URL as parameter for the KickStart file (ks=ftp://username:password@server/myks.ks), then encoded characters will not be interpreted correctly.
When the password contains a # then the character was encoded as %23, but the install process reports the error that the password is incorrect.
