Title:
  ubiquity crashes on boot: ValueError: invalid literal for int() with
  base 10: ''

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I tried installing the latest Xenial desktop iso and ubiquity fails
  when clicking on 'Continue' in the first screen (after setting up a
  network).

  I looked at the code and /usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/install_misc.py line 486 is where this fails.
  If I add the following before 'return (int(secureboot) == 1)' then the installer continues:

  if secureboot = '':
    secureboot = 0

  I'm guessing the previous functions to parse this variable are
  returning an empty string at some point instead of an integer.
