This bug is still present in Kubuntu Intrepid alpha-2.

When installation had finished, all the regular sources.list lines (pointing to the various places in http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/) was in place, however all the lines pointing to security.ubuntu.com was commented out with the «failed to verify» comment preceding them. I assume this is due to the lack of networking during installation, which I don't really think I could be blamed for - the installer only attempted to activate the wired network (which failed due to it being unused), and did not at all offer to use the wireless interface instead. There was no indication that leaving the network unconfigured during installation was a bad idea either.

I wouldn't probably have noticed this if it wasn't for the fact that it was an alpha release (and that I've got lots of experience with Debian), and I would have ended up with a quite insecure system. Not good.
