** Summary changed: - Trying to complete the system setup wizard on a fresh 16.04 install + Ubiquity crashes during final configuration if user requests encrypted home partition
** Description changed: - This is a fresh install of 16.04 (new System76 laptop, right out of the - box)--- every time I boot I get the typical network/keyboard - layout/timezone/user account configuration dialog; after setting the - account parameters and clicking 'Continue' a software installer starts - running and crashes fairly quickly on the ubiquity package. The - behavior is 100% reproducible across system restarts--- I have not yet - successfully completed the new user configuration process on this - machine. + If I select 'encrypt my home directory' in the user account setup dialog + (last manual step of the installation process) and click 'Continue', + Ubiquity starts applying the final configuration changes and crashes + about 4-5 seconds later (logs attached). This is 100% reproducible + across reboots on a vanilla 16.04 install (new System76 laptop, right + out of the box). Going through the process without requesting an + encrypted home directory yields normal completion. + + From the symptoms reported by other users this is quite possibly a + duplicate of one or more of the issues listed on + https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20140710 (and thus at least a + couple of years old), but few of those were investigated very thoroughly + so it's impossible to be sure.
