Please set this bug as Invalid. The problem comes in a corporate laptop and I found it was Sentinel Agent blocking the upgrade. Once we allowed the upgrade in a Sentinel rule it works perfectly.
For anyone getting this error check antivirus software. These are the relevant sentinel agent log lines: s1_log/agent.log:[2023-03-06 17:22:18.035762] [31244] [info] Created static group '4902bc31-6d8c-6ad6-adfd-7f1d9f1acedd' for malicious file '/usr/lib/firmware/ath11k/IPQ6018/hw1.0/m3_fw.mdt' s1_log/agent.log:[2023-03-06 17:22:18.037102] [31244] [info] Dispatching threat: type=suspicious, initiated_by=full_disk_scan, is_silent=0, kpid=-1, engine=dfi, indicators size=1, is_static=1, group_id=4902bc31-6d8c-6ad6-adfd-7f1d9f1acedd, in_container=97, host path=/usr/lib/firmware/ath11k/IPQ6018/hw1.0/m3_fw.mdt, size=6860, hash: 2d31cb17d5b716573823ee5b349b1c5b3f0cec8f, group id: 4902bc31-6d8c-6ad6-adfd-7f1d9f1acedd s1_log/agent.log:[2023-03-06 17:22:18.037646] [31222] [info] Mitigating a static threat, file: /usr/lib/firmware/ath11k/IPQ6018/hw1.0/m3_fw.mdt s1_log/agent.log:[2023-03-06 17:22:18.038928] [31222] [info] File /usr/lib/firmware/ath11k/IPQ6018/hw1.0/m3_fw.mdt quarantined -> /opt/sentinelone/.storage/4902bc31-6d8c-6ad6-adfd-7f1d9f1acedd/4902bc5c-bff1-ad03-5b45-e5badfaeb225 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2013176 Title: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/linux- firmware_20220329.git681281e4-0ubuntu3.11_all.deb (--unpack) Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: sudo apt upgrade Reading package lists...
