Comment 9 for bug 1798005

This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 18.10.11

---------------
ubiquity (18.10.11) cosmic; urgency=medium

  * kde, gtk: Wait for both timezone and partman_commit before installing.
    We were racing starting the installation with committing the partition
    table changes, if you were fast enough at the timezone selection page.
    What we need to do is wait until both timezone selection *and*
    partman_commit have finished before.
    This is a little bit delicate, because the user setup page, which comes
    after the timezone page, writes to debconf and so we have to be careful
    not to restart it after the user setup page is shown. We do that after
    finishing timezone selection, since this writes to debconf. It is not
    needed after partman_commit, because it only reads. (LP: #1798005)
