[Bug 1951399] Re: Ubuntu, Budgie, Kubuntu, Kylin, MATE, Xubuntu: jammy daily fails to install

[Doug Smythies]

On the parent page, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/daily-live/ ,  it
says "Latest images to have passed any automatic testing; try this
first" for the "current" directory. And indeed, those files are dated
November 5th for the AMD64 versions. And yes, they do install fine,
however that is not relevant to all of these bug reports.

Title:
  Ubuntu, Budgie, Kubuntu, Kylin, MATE, Xubuntu: jammy daily fails to
  install

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubiquity crashes when user tries to run ISO QA testing by following
  the procedure from:

  http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1300/info
  http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases/1305/info

  The actual result is the same: installer crashes with the following last line in the small terminal at the bottom - "plugininstall.py: ubiquity.install_misc.InstallStepError: AptSetup failed with code 127" .
  Does not depend on system type - happens on real hardware, QEMU, Virtualbox.

  
  This plugininstall.py came from ubiquity package.

  Expected result is completed bootable installation.
