[Bug 188976] Re: ubiquity crashed with OSError in copy_all()

[Lauri Listak]

Encountered this on Linux Mint. The installer fatally crashed without
even leaving the option to use the automatic reporting tool. Manually
doing  rm -rf /target/usr/local/share/* allows the installer to
complete, because only removing the man directory makes the installer
create a symlink and it will still crash, just with a different error.
