[Bug 955617] Re: ubiquity hangs (no activity forever) at configuring target system

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package casper - 1.312

---------------
casper (1.312) precise; urgency=low

  * bin/casper-reconfigure: Unset DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND, DEBIAN_FRONTEND, and
    DEBCONF_REDIR so that casper-reconfigure properly uses the
    noninteractive frontend when invoked from a ubiquity target-config hook
    (LP: #955617).
