Title:
  libapt-pkg.so.4.11.0 segfault during initial system installation
  (ubiquity)

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm doing a simple install to 2 xfs partitions. At first I was trying
  to keep /home unformatted, but the installer would crash at the same
  point as in this bug report. I backed up /home and chose to format
  this partition, but I'm still experiencing the crash.
