Public bug reported:

When trying to install Kubuntu vivid daily 20150405 amd 64 using the minimum memory requirements of 384 MB RAM from Precise Pangolin (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuDesktop#System_Requirements - Could not find something similar for Trusty Tahr or Vivid) the installation fails.
The problem is, that the user is not told exactly what the problem is, as only the stacktrace of the installer is shown.
(Only at the bottom of the stacktrace is a hint that only technical experienced users can understand.)

Additionally the crash messages is not localized to german.
Screenshot attached.
