Comment 3 for bug 2036966

Hello Sam,

This is interesting. I was about to point to bug 2017278 but this seems different - because subiquity does an online install.

I was able to reproduce the issue with the latest daily.

Looking at /etc/apt in the target system, I observed that the multiverse component is disabled.

$ grep Components /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources
Components: main restricted universe

which explains why ubuntu-restricted-addons could not be downloaded:

 ubuntu-restricted-addons | 29 | mantic/multiverse | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x

That said, there was no disabled_components set in /var/log/installer/subiquity-curtin-apt.conf.

This could indicate a bug in the deb822 sources handling by curtin.

That said, deb822 sources in curtin should be disabled (it was pushed back because of a bug in software-properties).

I think the ubuntu-budgie-installer needs to update to a more recent version of ubuntu-desktop-provision.
