Bug Description
I have tried to install the fglrx proprietary driver, when Jockey failed after downloading it with the following error dialog:
"""
Sorry, installation of this driver failed.
Please have a look at the log for details: /var/log/jockey.log
"""
Installing the normal (non-"post-release updates") driver/variant worked.
The tail of the error log is:

I am attaching a screenshot of Jockey after the fact and the whole log.
