Bug description:
I was trying to recreate another bug and just a full disk install with
an encrypted home and received a notification that ubiquity had
crashed.
TEST CASE:
1. Use a system with 1GB of RAM or less or a VM and set Virtual Memory to 1024MB
2. Boot a Live Session
3. Start Ubiquity
4. Select the following options:
- prepare: select 'Download upgrades while installing' and 'Install 3rd party software'
- partman: use entire disk
- user setup: Encrypt my home directory
5. Proceed with installation
ACTUAL RESULT
Near the end of installation ubiquity crash with the following error in syslog:
Apr 11 20:52:47 ubuntu plugininstall.py: self.pid = os.fork()
