[Bug 1182784] Re: Install with non English language fails on Keyboard: "ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 141" or "Installer Crashed"

[Tomasz Zegar]

Hi! I have this bug on Kubuntu 14.10. Ubuntu 14.10 and Ubuntu GNOME
14.10 works fine. I used to use Polish language and Polish keyboard in
Kubuntu and it didn't work. I've downloaded iso image many times and
I've installed Kubuntu from USB stick and from DVD and there is always
the same problem - ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 141.

Title:
  Install with non English language fails on Keyboard: "ubi-console-
  setup failed with exit code 141" or "Installer Crashed"

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Swiss German Keyboard abolutely does not work in kUbuntu 13.04
  Installer! No Way!

  64bit kUbuntu Desktop 13.04 image from kubuntu.org downloaded
  2013-05-22

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  First try:

  Try to install with Swiss-German Keyboard (i.e. choose it at boot
  screen) and there's a "ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 141"
  after setting the timezone; later (after ignore) the installation
  completely fails.

  And yes, I just correctly downloaded and burned a 64bit kUbuntu
  Desktop 13.04 image from kubuntu.org.

  Try it!

  Install kUbuntu in German (Deutsch) / Swiss German Keyboard (Deusch
  Schweiz), selected already at boot.

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Second try:

  Boot without language/keyboard selection. Start live desktop. Go to
  system settings, setup german language and swiss-german keyboard (I
  *need* that! ever tried to enter password with another keyboard
  layout?!?). Start installer in german (note I always choose encrypted
  LVM). Set timezone to Switzerland. This time, I arrive at the keyboard
  selection. There is no "Deutsch (Schweiz)" ("German (Switzerland)")
  only Austria is represented - why?!? - ok, there's Schweiz
  (Switzerland), so I choose it from the combo-box -> immediately
  crashes!

  "Installer Crashed" Traceback /usr/lib/ubiquity/plugin.py line 48 ...

  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  No, I cannot provide you with log files, since I cannot setup a system
  on that computer. Try it out yourself! Please!
