I had no idea what Ubuntu Customization kit was, but I downloaded it so as to help you and I found out what causes the bug, I also found a solution to the problem, after a 5-6 min search of the code. So, with some tricks on the code I managed to go till the screen that asks for the ISO, but I couldn't go further, as I didn't have an ISO downloaded, but I suspect that it should work fine from that point and after.

Ok, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal (using Ctrl+Alt+T) and give: gksudo gedit /usr/lib/uck/gui.sh

    Gedit will open.

  2. Now, replace all the text in the opened file with this text: http://paste.ubuntu.com/961943/ (DO NOT select the numbers on the left)

    Save the file and close gedit and terminal.

  3. Re-run UCK.

Please let me now if it works further than selecting the ISO image, because I've tested till that point only (cause as I said before, I don't have an ISO to test it out!)

Also, note that this is not a permanent fix, it will probably cause some bugs in case you click 'Cancel' etc, but it will at least not crush and let you do the work.

  • Thank u hakermania, u have done a marvelous job for me.Right now I am away from home but will conquer it with what u said and post the reply here as soon as I reach home.But let me say that it runs up to it allows me to select the language for the ISO but disappears the moment I click "ok" and only the message comes out as "the application zenity closed unexpectedly". – beeju May 02 '12 at 10:00
  • Yes beeju, the same happened to me, but I fixed it and it doesn't crush (closes unexpectedly) at least till the point that asks for the ISO file! – hytromo May 02 '12 at 10:05
  • I am so pleased.I don't know what all those texts you wrote on pastbin.I just entered my password for the build.It works!!! – beeju May 02 '12 at 11:34
  • But it failed at last.I went through all the lines on terminal before I close it.From this paste.ubuntu.com/962187 I thought the temp folder in my Home folder made this problem.So I removed it from there.On running the package,it failed again and I deleted both resolvconf folder and resolv.conf with root power.Now it said this http://paste.ubuntu.com/962263/ – beeju May 02 '12 at 12:33
  • Sorry, I don't know anything else about this :( – hytromo May 02 '12 at 13:41
  • I will try again later, when I'll have more time and I'll try to fix it, once I've downloaded the 12.04 LTS iso, of course. – hytromo May 02 '12 at 14:06
  • I will wait as I don't know about scripts but I continue try in Launchpad.Thanks for your follow up. – beeju May 02 '12 at 17:30
  • Unfortunately I didn't manage to find where this errors stems from. I got the same error but I couldn't find anywhere in the uck executables something about resolv.conf file, so it's probably an external command to blame. – hytromo May 04 '12 at 19:44
  • @hakermania as user164033 pointed out in an answer, your link for Step 2 doesn't show anything, maybe it needs to be updated :) – Oyibo Jun 03 '13 at 07:12
  • It would be nice if you sent an email to the developers rather than trying to find your way around this bug ;) – hytromo Jun 03 '13 at 07:30
