Title:
  Lubuntu Kinetic installation crashes near the end on a system with a
  badly outdated clock

Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Test hardware is on an HP Elitebook 8570p, 16 GB RAM, 120 GB SSD.

  My Elitebook has a hardware problem that requires that I detach the
  CMOS battery and leave it that way in order for the system to
  function. Additionally, if I shut the system down, I have to leave it
  unplugged and with the battery removed, otherwise it won't boot when I
  go to turn it on next. (I think a thunderstorm fried a capacitor that
  had something to do with the CMOS, but anyway, weird as it may sound,
  that's the problem with my computer.)

  As a result, when I power my Elitebook on, it thinks that it's some
  time in the year 2000, which is about 22 years off.

  In addition, my Elitebook uses a Broadcom wireless chip, meaning that
  I have to connect to the Internet via Ethernet in order to install the
  driver for it. Since getting an Ethernet connection in my house is not
  so easy, I chose to simply perform the installation offline.

  At the very end of the installation, the installation failed, and I
  received the following error message:

      External command finished with errors.

      Command apt-get update finished with exit code 100.
      Output:

  The tar errors lead me to believe that this is a result of the out-of-
  date clock on my system. Furthermore, after connecting to the Internet
  to install the Broadcom drivers in the live environment and make the
  bug report, my clock is up-to-date, and I was able to install the
  system thereafter.
