[Bug 1240683] Re: Ubuntu one login during install hangs

[Mike Butash]

Has anyone noticed that simply put, for all intents and purposes broken
with this bug?  I've wasted a good part of a day just trying to figure
out a workaround for this issue, only to find there seems to be no
workaround for it.  This is absurd, and exactly why I've always avoided
the desktop installations, aside from the fact they don't have mdadm,
lvm, or cryptsetup prior.  Still doesn't have mdraid, and now this
broken install just tells me why I need to find a new distribution.

Does no one do actual Q/A on your releases?  I'd expect this in an alpha
release, not an actual release.

Title:
  Ubuntu one login during install hangs

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  During the install, I selected to login to my ubuntu one account and provided my userid/password.
  I have seen this succeed many times, but this time it just hung at a screen with the spinner, and the buttons for back/continue/login later were no longer usable after hitting continue. They were gray at first, then when I switched windows and came back they were clickable but didn't do anything.
  When I switched to a terminal and ran top, I noticed that ubiquity was using 90% cpu.

  I reran with -d enabled to get better logs.

  The image I'm using right now is saucy desktop amd64 20131016.1
