Thanks for the fix!

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

I am reopening this bug because it reappeared in jammy.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Ideally we should open a new bug in this case.

[Laurent Bonnaud (laurent-bonnaud)]

OK, done and bugs merged.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Moved to bug 1968999.
