Title:
  Kubuntu 10.10 installer crashes while choosing USB partitions

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/kde_components/PartMan.py", line 119, in on_treeviewSelectionChanged
      for action in self.ctrlr.dbfilter.get_actions(devpart, partition):
  AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_actions'

  I am on a MacbookPro 3,1. I am trying to install Kubuntu 10.10 from a livecd on to a USB stick. I choose advanced for partitions, selected premade fat32 for efi boot, ext4 for linux journaling mount as /, and a swap partition as swap. Choose /dev/sdb as boot loader location. It fails to create partition for EFI Boot loader (going to try actually specifiying /dev/sdb1/ where it seems like it actually should be) Ok, so it fails to create partition. It re-reads partitions and takes me back to the choose where/how to install it. again select advanced/manually select partitions. it displays all partitions correctly but is waiting for a while (spinning cursor). it then crashes. i don't believe i was clicking anything, but i was moving the mouse (via trackpad) and it is sensitive, so I may have "clicked" by tapping trackpad w/o realizing.
  Yeah, i think that is probably every thing. Oh I was reading a good book too at the time, but that probably isn't relevant.
  good luck.
