This bug can be fixed by changing two lines in the python script /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/usbcreator/backends/udisks$ diff -u backend.py.orig backend.py.
It seems rather important to fix it, since it will prevent people from installing Ubuntu. Also, it is rather off-putting to find a webpage which explains how easy it is to make a bootable USB stick, and then have the easy solution instantly crash.
I am attaching a patch which fixed this problem for me.
