This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.1.17
---------------
ubiquity (2.1.17) lucid; urgency=low
[ Mario Limonciello ] oem-config. postinst:
* debian/
- Source debconf to ensure templates are populated in debconf.
* Drop update-rc.d calls from oem-config scripts as it's only supported
via upstart now.
* misc: return True/False from execute_root rather than None.
[ Evan Dandrea ]
* Use a GtkSpinner instead of a separate progress window when on the
manual partitioning page.
[ Colin Watson ] installer- utils basicfilesystem s 63ubuntu3, partitioning 72ubuntu3, tzsetup 1:0.26ubuntu5.
* In cdebconf mode, initialise the templates database if necessary as a
workaround for cdebconf's packaging not doing this itself.
* Don't issue PROGRESS REGION command under debconf_ui (LP: #519398).
* KDE frontend:
- Don't add partition bar frames for devices we can't find for whatever
reason (LP: #485450).
* Pass model, layout, variant, and options to rewrite_xorg_conf
(LP: #514646).
* Install zh-hans language packs for zh_CN, and zh-hant language packs for
zh_TW (LP: #517621).
* Fix crash on keyboard variant selection (LP: #512953).
* Enable cancellation of NTP syncing.
* Correct tuple syntax in copy_debconf, thereby fixing copying of
console-setup's debconf questions.
* Fix unmount of /target/dev harder; second and subsequent arguments to
os.path.join need to not start with a slash.
* Automatically fall back to vesa if normal X startup fails. This is a
reduced emulation of bullet-proof-X; using the standard implementation
is currently tricky.
* Add a couple of lintian overrides.
* Explicitly build-depend on xkb-data-i18n. We normally skip
console-setup's build-dependencies when generating our own, but we need
this one to run kbdnames-maker.
* Update translations from Launchpad (LP: #473554, #520905).
* Automatic update of included source packages: base-installer
1.103ubuntu3, console-setup 1.34ubuntu9, debian-
1.72ubuntu3, grub-installer 1.49ubuntu4, hw-detect 1.73ubuntu2,
partman-auto 89ubuntu3, partman-
