Public bug reported:
I was using the Kubuntu 17.10 from a couple of days ago to install,
written to a USB flash drive, to install 17.10 on my desktop (an attempt
at upgrade failed--I was doing other things while the upgrade (from the
command line) was preparing packages for installation, and when I
returned, I just saw the glowing kubuntu graphic boot display, sitting
there and making no progress, so I decided to try a plain install). It
spent a long time trying to restore (or perhaps update is the better
word?) packages that it saw already installed, and then a pop-up
appeared, saying that it couldn't complete that part, and I could just
reinstall packages manually after the install completed. I clicked to
close that window, and just after that it came up saying the install
failed, so I should submit an error report on ubiquity, which I am doing
now.
/var/log/installer/syslog doesn't exist; attaching /var/log/partman.
