calamares failed with python error (possible sunspot/sunburst?)

[Chris Guiver]

Lubuntu hirsute QA-test install with 2021-04-15 on
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
testcase: full disk, encryption, BIOS, internet, swap
(added autologin too)

Failed with error... I think it's a unlucky/chance error (sunspot, sunburst) causing momentary web/power issues? [maybe even sync in progress as logs state]

I'll re-run test & look at this report (once uploaded), but a quick glance & I'm not convinced it wasn't just bad luck..

Install worked anyway... and looked good

Yeah, looking at the logs, this is an ephemeral archive error. I get these every once in a blue moon.
