Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 24.04 apt updates some packages that break dependancies of mesa-
vu-drivers package and then removes mesa-vu-drivers. It basically
removes my GPU driver.
This also happened with transmission-cli a month earlier. Ubuntu 24.04
apt updated transmission-common but didn't update transmission-cli,
breaking the dependancy, and then removing transmission-cli with no
other solution presented. That bug still hasn't been fixed.
