Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

For me the bug also triggers when selecting german in the Ubiquity language selection

Hi Daniel,
Bug #1182784 has been fixed since ubiquity 2.18.8.2, please make sure you can still reproduce the issue after upgrading ubiquity package(Ubuntu 14.04 installation media still has buggy version pre-installed)!

This bug is for people who still have the issue even after upgrading to 2.18.8.2.

Hi,
I can reproduce the bug with german language selected with the latest daily built live cd (30.09.2014) as well as with a custom remastered Kubutu CD in which I had the issue first. Ubiquity has version 2.18.8.2.

I will attach my logfiles to this bug.

The relevant snippet from the installer debug log is:
Exception caught in process_line:

I found the same traceback as Daniel's at #9

@Brian Murray
Could you kindly point out any link(s) about the 'regression-update' tag removal? IMO this *is* a regression of Bug #1182784 .

The regression-update tag is for bugs that did not affect the version of the package in the final release, but do affect the version of the package in the -updates pocket. So it is specifically for bugs introduced by Stable Release Updates.

@Brian
Got it, thanks!

Ubiquity 2.18.7, 2.18.8 (Default on Kubuntu 14.04.1) does not have this problem.

I have no way to test 2.18.8.1, but I'm sure that 2.18.8.2 have this problem.

Confirmed that this bug is a regression after 2.18.8.2, adding back regression-update
 tag.

Ｖ字龍(Vdragon) (vdragon) Please affect me.

This is still happening with 15.04 Vivid

I did not get to keyboard settings.
only setting language to French and after hitting next on the timezone

ubi-console-setup returned error 141

marked as duplicate as it's the same issue, should be fixed in today's daily which will shortly become vivid beta 1, testing welcomed. thanks for the report
