Created user space is empty with last calamares net-install

Hello.

I was doing some test with net-installer - https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/how-to-install-calamares-for-testing/1446/ - and I noticed a big bad bug. I was not able to login… Using mc in root, here what looks like a newly created user space.

Note: I’m using an ISO made on September 11th morning, using calamares_for_testers script.

Note 2: Offline installer is OK. Userspace is correcty filled.

On the left, user space, on the right root one… Ouch!

VirtualBox_Eos%20-%20Gnome_11_09_2019_13_46_58

Very empty, indeed.

Here is the log of Calamares for user space creation:
