Bug Description

Version: 6.06 LiveCD, official release. AMD64

When trying to select a location by clicking in the world-map, Ubiquity exits (reproducible), returning the following info:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1831, in button_pressed
    new_location_selected = \
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ubiquity/frontend/gtkui.py", line 1737, in location_from_point
    (longitude, latitude) = point.get_location()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_location'

This is the syslog file, as requested in the exit-message that Ubiquity returned.

The second syslog file...

The partman logfile had not been created yet, so I can't provide that.

Note: after having this crash a few times, I could reliably get past this step by just selecting a location from the dropdown menus.

Marking this as a duplicate of bug 48885, since that one comes with a patch :-)
