During fresh installation procedure I get this error:

Error installing /cdrom//pool/main/g/glibc/locales_2.19-18+deb8u2_all.deb
trying to overwrite '/usr/sbin/validlocale', which is also in package libc-bin 2.21-0ubuntu4

After closing this error, another one pops up saying the installer has crashed

installer crashed, report a bug

I booted my laptop from a live USB which has iso of Ubuntu 15.10.
I used unetbootin to make the bootable USB.

  • Looks like an installer bug to me. No idea, but maybe you could try to install it again with a different language setting? – Byte Commander Jan 26 '16 at 11:32

    The package `locales_2.19-18+deb8u2_all.deb` belongs to Debian jessie. It isn't compatible with Ubuntu 15.10. Are you sure you are using an official Ubuntu ISO image? – Florian Diesch Jan 26 '16 at 11:59
  • yes I am sure.I download it from official website http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop 2nd link in the page-64 bit – Sadegh Jan 26 '16 at 12:06
  • need to add that I used unetbootin to make bootable usb – Sadegh Jan 26 '16 at 12:26
  • @karel: How does that question relate to such an issue *during system installation*? Please be more careful when you suggest linked question. – David Foerster Nov 27 '17 at 11:52

The problem is actually in unetbootin. If you start unetbootin from the same version as you are trying to install, there should be no problem. I tried installing 14.04.4-LTS or 15.10 with a stick made wit unetbootin from 12.04 LTS, and I had the same error. Since I did not have any system, I tried the Rufus-tool on Windows and that made perfect install stick....
