Title: Can't install any packages with ubuntu-drivers using ubuntu-drivers when invoked from ubiquity Status in linux-restricted-modules package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: We are in the process of switching ubuntu-drivers to installing linux- restricted-modules versions of NVidia drivers when it can, but this fails when Ubiquity invokes ubuntu-drivers, like: Setting up linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-25-generic (5.4.0-25.29) ... /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-25-generic.postinst: 44: 3: B ad file descriptor dpkg: error processing package linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-25-generic (--con figure): installed linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-25-generic package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 2 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of linux-modules-nvidia-440-gen eric-hwe-20.04: linux-modules-nvidia-440-generic-hwe-20.04 depends on linux-modules-nvidia-440 -5.4.0-25-generic (= 5.4.0-25.29); however: Package linux-modules-nvidia-440-5.4.0-25-generic is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing package linux-modules-nvidia-440-generic-hwe-20.04 (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured It's a problem with the nesting of debconf: Ubiquity itself is using debconf, and ubuntu-drivers is installing -nvidia- packages which themselves also use debconf, and we don't know how to connect ubuntu- drivers use of debconf with the ubiquity one.
