** Description changed:

+ TEST CASE: Install an i386 system (importantly, must not be amd64) whose
+ networking goes through a deliberately broken proxy; for example,
+ comment #5 has an attachment that can be modified to break packages with
+ selected names.  If one of those packages is a language support package
+ - firefox-locale-en is usually a good victim for this kind of thing -
+ then ubiquity will crash.  The fix arranges for it to skip installing
+ language packs and carry on instead, which was how it works in 12.04 on
+ amd64 but was broken on other architectures.
+ 
+ Original report follows:
+ 
  Installment process, many errors occur about copy files.
