#985 Installer hangs on linux

[Rob Gansevles]

I am running the installer on lInux as regular user.

After unpacking (Pack Installation progress 100%), the installer hangs when you hit the next button.
From the thread dump you can see that it is calling some linux command.

On the izpack site I found a bug that probably causes this (when installer is called as regular user, the sudo command is called to get the list of users).
See http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/IZPACK-392
This bug is reported as fixed in izpack 5, please upgrade (a user reports this is also fixed in izpack 4.3.3).

The install seems to work anyway when I just kill the installer.

Thanks,

Rob Gansevles
