ma-search-users crash when installing Gutsy Tribe 2

[Adilson Oliveira]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

When I tried to install the Tribe 2 CD in a Asus G1 Laptop with a previous Feisty instalation, when the migration assistent screen shows up, the console shows that ma-search-users crash. Despite that, the instaltion seens to continue without problems.
This is a screen capture of the error:

I ran ubiquity with --debug and the resulting log is attached.

Would you be willing to try this with Tribe 4 (please read warnings about running unstable versions): http://cdimage.ubuntu.com

[Phillip Susi (psusi)]

Since this was reported in a beta of a release that has been end of life for years, I am going to close it. If you can reproduce it on a currently supported release, feel free to update it.
