Mario, did your fix also take care of the regular install.py as well? It seems to be broken there also?

Paul:

The fix was actually in install.py, which mythbuntu_install.py inherits
from, so yes.

Marking this critical since it seems to currently prevent install on all Ubuntu flavors. I know a fix has been committed for it already, any idea when we might expect to see it go to released?

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 1.13.8

---------------
ubiquity (1.13.8) karmic; urgency=low

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Elaborate on the purpose of timezone selection in the heading, to
    better assist those confused about the need to select a city. Thanks
    Colin Watson.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Check that the home directory actually exists before running os.listdir
    on it in the select_ecryptfs function. (LP: #394338)

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Clarify that "use the entire disk" really does mean erasing everything
    on it (thanks, Jason Spiro; LP: #94382).
  * Match up chroot_cleanup start-stop-daemon conditionals with
    chroot_setup, to avoid failing if the target filesystem didn't contain
    /sbin/start-stop-daemon for some reason (LP: #394669).
  * Fix manifest file handling, broken in 1.13.5 (LP: #395195).
  * Automatic update of included source packages: debian-installer-utils
    1.70ubuntu1, partconf 1.32, user-setup 1.27ubuntu4.
