[Chris Guiver]

Running a Ubuntu Desktop mantic live session on
- dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350)

** steps to create

- boot & ubuntu mantic daily; select 'TRY'
- wait for boot to complete
- open terminal (ctrl+alt+t)
- sudo apt update
- sudo apt install vlc

** expected results

package & requirements install

** actual result

Setting up libheif-plugin-aomenc:amd64 (1.16.2-2ubuntu1) ...

Error: Timeout was reached

** comments

this was repeated twice, same result.

PROBLEM MAYBE ONLY FINAL ERROR MESSAGE SHOWN on terminal, ie. ending with "Error: Timeout was reached" as I can use the packages that I installed.. though my running `apt install -f` was because of the final error message

also occurred with `sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad`

** actual paste of terminal (top redacted)
