the installer runs fine up until it asks me to enter a new username, then crashes and give me a check logs error, the output on top is what i copied from that log.
I am using XFCE4.10.
Any idea how to fix this ?

I think you can ignore all the yad errors. I see stuff like that a lot. I assume your username did not get changed. You can fix it on your end by booting the new installation, drop to console with ctrl-alt-F1(or F2, F3 or F4), log in as root, and run change-username. The script will prompt you for the correct order of oldname and newname if you give it no arguments.
As for why this happened, I don't know. What version of debian are you using, is it a stock debian-live or a snapshot that you created? What version of refractainstaller-yad? (Not that it matters much - that part of the script hasn't changed in a long time.)
If you want to help debug the script, you could run the installation again, but run it from a root terminal in debug mode:

Code:
  `refractainstaller-yad -d`

Then you get lots of output in the log file - maybe more than you can post here.

You could try the usermod commands alone, in a root terminal:

Code:
  `usermod -l $newname $oldname
  groupmod -n $newname $oldname
  usermod -d /home/$newname -m $newname`

Make sure the user is not logged in when you do it.

I tested the current stable installer with wheezy and the beta installer with sid, and they both seem to be working. The yad errors are because of missing themes. I get a bunch of them in sid, because I haven't installed a lot of stuff. (It's complaining about missing murine themes.)
Maybe there's something odd about the new username you're entering, or it has to do with using a different keyboard layout? Just a guess. I've tried 'usermod -l' with upper case, numbers, and one special character, and it doesn't complain.
BTW, if you do use the usermod commands above to change the name, group and home, you should change them back to the originals, and then use the change-username script to make them what you want, or you'll have a bunch of references to the old name in some of your home config files. (or use the ugly sed commands from the script to find and change them.)

raymerjacque, sounds like a sid image (or mixed, or with a lot of backport stuff)
Remember nobody actually "supports" sid (unstable), we rely on user reports to help with debugging. There might be something important needs fixing that only shows in some situations or setups. Then things can and do change suddenly in sid.
The simple "errorlog" is not always enough. Without more details of the image you're trying to install, installer version and a full debug log, what went wrong is down to guesswork.
Latest installer works here for current custom sid images including change-username.. for the setup(s) I'm using.

Can you say what you did to get it to work or what caused it not to work? That might help if someone else runs into the same problem. Thanks.

> It's complaining about missing murine themes

or themes depending on the murrine theme engine are present, yet the engine itself is not installed

> Latest installer works here for current custom sid images...

I'm fairly certain that refracta ships with several "broken" (in terms of throwing gtk+ errors) themes... and I'm absolutely certain that Adwaita (and several other theme packages in the debian repos) are "broken" relative to the corresponding libgtk versions in each given repo. In other words, there's plenty of opportunity for user to select non-default theme prior to install, and / or upgrade libgtk (and/or a given theme package) prior to install... opportunity for introducing problems not evident when testing a to-be-released build. Even if using "stable" repo, if backports repo is also used... unless you've pinned your theme packages and libgtk packages,
