Title:
  VMWare easy install stops on "Prepare stage"

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in ubiquity source package in Impish:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Product: VMware® Workstation 16 Player
  Version: 16.1.1 build-17801498

  Starting from Ubiquity 21.04.5 the "prepare" plugin runs in automatic mode (bug 1895351)
  Debconf variable in this page must now be preseeded otherwise the page is displayed.

  This breaks VMWare Easy install which stops automated installation on
  the prepare page. If the user clicks on "Continue", the installation
  continues automatically as expected.

  The following variables can be preseeded in this page:
  ubiquity/use_nonfree
  ubiquity/download_updates
  ubiquity/minimal_install
  apt-setup/universe
  apt-setup/multiverse
  ubiquity/nonfree_package
