[Bug 1264400] [NEW] Usb-creator-gtk crashes after pushing the Make startup disk button

Public bug reported:

Whether I use my laptop running 13.04 or my desktop PC running 13.10, I
am unable to create a bootable USB drive from any ISO image, even images
like 9.04 that used to work fine.

- I tried multiple USB keys
- I checked MD5 sums
- Unetbootbin does the job

There is no specific error shown on the command line and the message is
only "Installation failed" (translated from french as launching usb-
creator-gtk with LANG=C gives an error)

The error shows up straight away without a delay after pressing the
"Make startup disk" button.
