[Bug 1003851] Re: Quantal Ubuntu Desktop 20120524 failed to install: ubi-language failed with exit status 1: UnicodeError in process_line() in filteredcommand.py

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.11.2

---------------
ubiquity (2.11.2) quantal; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * If ubiquity is started up in a non-UTF-8 locale, force it into C.UTF-8
    and fail immediately if that's unavailable (LP: #1003851).
  * KDE fails to round-trip strings containing U+FEFF ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK
    SPACE, such as the translations of a few language names.  Strip these
    from language name translations.
  * Install debconf-set from debian-installer-utils, useful for preseeding.

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Remove migration-assistant following foundations-q-testing-
    migration-assistant. Thanks Dmitrijs Ledkovs!
  * Automatic update of included source packages: base-installer
    1.122ubuntu8, flash-kernel 2.28ubuntu43.
