Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Alpha 6 Desktop Installer CD
Architecture: amd64
Ubiquity
Version: 1.99.21
The problem
========
When the installer is running (partitioning, copying files, etc), trying to drag an image from the Webkit control crashes Ubiquity.
Steps to reproduce
===========
Just drag the Ubuntu logo from the 'Installing system' window.
What should happen
============
Not crash :)
I didn't find any relevant information in the log files because Ubiquity just dies, but I'm attaching a gdb backtrace.

Confirmed. It seems to have something to do with the new-window- policy- decision- requested handler we install. I get this on stderr:
python: malloc.c:4591: _int_malloc: Assertion `(unsigned long)(size) >= (unsigned long)(nb)' failed.
