This bug was fixed in the package ubiquity - 2.9.29

---------------
ubiquity (2.9.29) precise; urgency=low

  [ Oliver Grawert ]
  * disable gnome-settings-daemon power management plugin during install to
    make sure things like lid closing or accidential pressing of power or
    suspend buttons do not put us into suspend mode (LP: #948163)

  [ Stéphane Graber ]
  * ubi-partman: Ignore None cell values, we'll get another event
    when they actually contain something anyway. (LP: #939450)
  * Fix set_indicator_keymaps to always send an array of strings to
    gsettings and also go through more of the possible language codes as
    Xkl doesn't seem to always work with part2_code (LP: #955844)
  * Restrict the list of keyboard layouts added to the indicator to 4
    and try to be clever as to which one to select.
  * Only use the keyboard indicator when in greeter mode, otherwise it'd
    override any previously selected keyboard layout (from gfxboot or from
    the user session)
  * Update indicator tests to match the new code, ensuring we don't have
    more than 4 entries and that languages with variants work fine.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: console-setup
    1.70ubuntu3, partman-auto 93ubuntu22, partman-efi 24ubuntu3.
