Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
When installing Ubuntu 11.04, Ubiquity proposes a name for the computer, by which it will be identified on the network.
Changing this name causes an error: supposedly "the name is already in use on the network". This error shows for each and every name you try! So there's no solution.
As installation is already well under way at that time, this is quite a nuisance.

Are you sure there are not other computers on your network with that name already? What names did you try?
