Can confirm.

Neon installer, english version (location: slovenia, keyboard: slovenian), latest (downloaded today) installed using USB.

Installer crashes when installing language packs.

Can't report from installer as anything I try to open also crashes. The entire live cd seems to be extremly unstable as it freezes after every step of the installer.

Can confirm!

neon-development-devedition-gitunstable-development-20161122-1651-amd64.iso

Neon installer (location: hungary, keyboard: hungary), installed using USB and  DVD.

Installer crashes when installing language packs 30%.

Similiar issue using neon-useredition-20161124-1018-amd64.iso with settings:

English version
location: Poland
keyboard: European Portuguese (pt_PT)

and 

English version
location: Poland
keyboard: en_US

The only way I was able to finish the instalation was with settings:

English version
location: US, New York
keyboard: en_US

Errors seen were the same as the screenshot "screenshot after crash"

The result of the "ubuntu-bug ubiquity" command was:

"Problem cannot be reported"
"This is not an official KDE Package. Please remove any third party package and try again"

Screenshot in attach.

The same happens in both Virtualbox and bare metal.

Testing Neon LTS in vmware now and now I got no error message, everything is working now with Norwegian language.
I set this as resolved and fixed now because everything works.
