This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.18.2
---------------
ubiquity (2.18.2) trusty; urgency=medium
* Set HOME, because without HOME GtkBuilder upon seeing a FileChooser
button in the ui file and trying to initialise object for it throws a
hizzy fit and aborts on an assert, if per-default it's meant to open
present working directory and it happens to be inaccessible one like
/root/. (LP: #1306341). This resolves launching Mythubuntu installer
in a live session using pkexec, back in 12.04 gksudo/sudo was used
instead.
