Dear Alberto, well I don't think this is a debian bug and I tell you why. I've made a quick check and made preseed installations of both, the latest debian release (Jessie 8.6) and the latest Ubuntu LTS (16.04.1). Debian finished just fine and the repository was properly installed during installation... Ubuntu failed during installation -> no package sources (the bug described in this ticket happened). So instead of pushing away... I think it should be fixed asap. This is one of the papercuts that disqualifies Ubuntu 16.04 for professional use at the moment (just my humble opinion).

The problem is that debian installer does not concat the last string in sources.list correctly. The prefix "deb" is missing. So apt fails to update and the installer cannot continue because there are no valid package sources.
