Public bug reported:
The crash occurs in both UEFI and legacy modes.
New installation with pre-existing /home on a separate partition.
Installing from the live session results in a crash during "copying files" step
with this message in the log:
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''
status = int(status)
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/debconf.py", line 83, in command
lambda *args, **kw: self.command(command, *args, **kw))
....
The slideshow graphics never appears. Removal of the ubiquity-
slidewshow-ubuntu-gnome package lets the file copying to go through but
the installer crashes during "installing the system" step.
Log shows:
ubiquity.install_misc.InstallStepError: Plugin language failed with
