Title:
  ubiquity crashed with InstallStepError in configure_timezone()

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Using Intrepid (8.10) amd64 LiveCD. Chose "French" language and "Swiss
  Frech" keyboard at startup. Ubiquity (1.10.10) crashed nearly at the
  end of the installation process and showed the window "Application
  problem. Sorry, the program "ubiquity" closed unexpectedly blablabla".

  Went through installer, then it downloaded files from mirror, then crashed (in configure_timezone() it seems).
  Files seems to be copied on the harddrive, but no boot loader (I think I will reboot as usual next time I restart).

  If I try to lauch Ubiquity again by double-clicking on the "Installer"
  button on the desktop, application crashes again. I'm going to try to
  install the available updates from mirror before trying again.
