Comment 43 for bug 1943049

Hi.

I am not entirely sure if that is related to what is currently going on, but I just tried to replicate my original report https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1943293, which you can also find above as https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1943049/comments/39.
I am now getting a *different* error from before:

and then:

root@4479609faaa5:/# curl
bash: curl: command not found

Here is some system information:

*Inside* the container:

root@15c0613638fc:/# uname -a

root@15c0613638fc:/# lsb_release -a
bash: lsb_release: command not found

On my *host* system:

$ uname -a
Linux home 5.11.0-37-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 20 16:39:20 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 21.04
Release: 21.04
Codename: hirsute

The system is fully updated, i.e. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade does not lead to any change.

In the past, the installation of curl would work, but then "curl https://bing.com" would fail.
Now the installation of curl fails.
