When running the ISO tracker test case "Install UEFI SecureBoot nVidia
in Ubuntu Desktop" without internet connectivity with the questing
candidate image (20251007) I'd expect nvidia-driver-580 to be installed
on my device (Acer A515 with NVIDIA Geforce MX130), but it wasn't. If
the installer runs with the live session connected to the internet then
it works.
Chroot'ing into the target system after an offline installation confirms
that nvidia packages were not installed and attempting to install with
`ubuntu-drivers install --no-oem` shows that the packages in the pool
are not installable due missing dependency on libnvidia-compute-580. See
details below. Looking at subiquity logs it runs that command it reports
success (in fact despite the output below that command exits 0). More
importantly, the package libnvidia-compute-580 is not in the image pool
(which is what I think it's causing the issue).

E: Unable to satisfy dependencies. Reached two conflicting decisions:
1. nvidia-utils-580:amd64 is selected for install because:
1. nvidia-driver-580:amd64=580.82.07-0ubuntu2 is selected for install
2. nvidia-driver-580:amd64 Depends nvidia-utils-580 (= 580.82.07-0ubuntu2)
2. nvidia-utils-580:amd64 Depends libnvidia-compute-580 (>= 580.82.07)
but none of the choices are installable:
