I am able to reproduce this bug with ubiquity 2.5.11 on today's Natty Desktop i386 Install CD (.iso image md5sum e8106eddd8f76212ea6861511d1e4586). It occurs when I am asked to verify the time zone that the installer guesses for me, but before I verify it. I don't know if this would occur if I verified it fast enough--perhaps 30 seconds passed between when I was given the opportunity to verify my time zone and when the crash occurred.
I am unsure that this is a crash, in the usual sense, since ubiquity is still running and copying files to the disk. If Apport had not been launched, I would not know that anything wrong had occurred. I am able to accept the time zone it has suggested for me (and presumably, I could also change it, though I didn't try that) and continue on with the interactive part of the installation, while the noninteractive file copy progress continues to proceed without any indication of trouble. This bug report indicates that the installation was not successful, so perhaps I am experiencing a related but different bug. It doesn't seem that way to me, but if instructed to do so, I would be pleased to file a separate bug report. Unlike the original reporter, my live CD system is not running Unity (because its video adapter is not capable of it, at least with the drivers that load automatically from the live CD), but I strongly doubt that is significant. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/703476 Title: ubiquity crashed with TypeError in changed(): value is of wrong type for this column -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
