Title:
  Kubuntu 16.04 Beta 2 Installer crashes on installation if you change
  the default language

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The installer have some problems with the keyboard layouts, because if
  you change the default language at the beginning of installation, when
  it reaches the step of selecting the keyboard layout, appears a small
  window with a message saying "Do you wish to keep the default keyboard
  layout?". In my case, I changed the default language to Spanish, and
  regardless of the option I choose, then appears an error message
  saying "ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 141. Further
  information may be found in /var/log/syslog. Do you want to try
  running this step again before continuing? If you do not, your
  installation may fail entirely or may be broken" and then we have 3
  options: Retry, Ignore or Cancel. If I choose 'Retry', the same
  process is repeated. If I choose 'Ignore', I can continue until the
  final installation step and during the installation, the installer
  crashes. If I choose 'Cancel', the installer closes alike. I don't
  know if it occurs with more languages, but if I change the Spanish
  language, to reach the step of selecting the keyboard layout, happens
  what you see in the attached images.

  It's really serious that a bug like this is present to a week of the
  official release.

  Here I attach the files /var/log/syslog and /var/log/partman, and 3 screenshots:
