[Bug 743359] Re: Installer: LockFailedException: Failed to lock /target/var/cache/apt/archives/lock

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.8.2

---------------
ubiquity (2.8.2) oneiric; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Preserve ordering of disks returned by partman-auto rather than
    shuffling them based on dictionary ordering (LP: #770711).  This uses
    collections.OrderedDict, which requires Python >= 2.7.
  * Run only those parts of oem-config-prepare that require root access as
    root; in particular displaying confirmation dialogs is now done as the
    calling user, which avoids KDE confusion (LP: #856418).
  * Go back to killing update-apt-cache's process group, but this time make
    sure that it's in a separate process group and make more of an effort to
    ensure that it terminates (LP: #743359).
  * Update translations from Launchpad.

  [ Stéphane Graber ]
  * Make ubiquity also update gsettings (LP: #800760)
    - Add a new gsettings module similar to the gconftool one
    - Update ubiquity-dm for gconf to gsettings migration
    - Get PROXY configuration from gsettings
    - Update gtk_ui to set/restore gsettings values
  * Update copy_network_config to work with Network Manager now storing
    everything system wide.
