ubiquity crashed with InstallStepError in configure_user()

[andersRson]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

crash is reproducible when using existing /home partition without formatting. I used an account name of an existing user, and ubiquity would crash every time. Formatting the /home partition solved it.
