This is caused by address space randomization in 2.6 kernels ( thanks to Jorrit Kronjee for the hint )
Set the sysctl variable kernel.
Setting the variable can be done by either editing /etc/sysctl.conf and rebooting or by running the following command:
$ sudo sysctl kernel.
Then perform the install again.
