Comment 3 for bug 50319

So, this turned out to be a bit of both casper and ubiquity. I've fixed a few minor bugs in casper which had to be dealt with, but the real structural fix was in ubiquity.

casper (1.66) edgy; urgency=low

  * Fix use of db_get in ubiquity accessibility hook.
  * Use sudo instead of su to get to the live session user from the
    initramfs or to the newly-installed user from ubiquity. su's argument
    handling has changed so that the previous code no longer worked, and su
    was never all that good for arguments containing spaces anyway.
