    I found that on my ASUS that did not have "ubuntu-drivers-common" installed, I also did not have "kubuntu-driver-manager" installed.

    I found that by installing "kubuntu-driver-manager" it would also install alsa-utils, kubuntu-driver-manager and libatopology2.

    So like you at this stage, all is working well.

      I have gwenview working and the version I have is 4:19.12.1-0ubuntu1. On muon, I could not find any reference to kipi-plugins in gwenview's Dependencies or Installed Files.

        gwenview builds with and depends on libkipi, which is the library to allow it to use kipi-plugins if they are available.

        As said, the actual kipi-plugins used to be built by the digikam source. Now they are in a new KDE source not in 20.04 yet.

        It would not be sensible for gwenview to depend/recommend/suggest them at the moment, as they are not available.

            I've been running 20.04 for a while and have had little to no problem with it at all. Everything has been smooth including all Wine apps, etc. I ran update this morning and received the following error:

            Any ideas on how to clear this and finish the upgrade?

              The usual. In a Konsole issue

              sudo apt -f install
              sudo dpkg --configure -a


              Repeat them until no error msgs are reported.

                I've run both at least a dozen times but continue getting the same error:

                  Neither works in this case.

                  Added:
                  I wonder if this is a regression issue. I found a Debian bug report on the exact same problem (earlier kernel of course, but still the exact same issue):

                  Debian Bug report logs - #898720
                  E: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/btrfs failed with return 1 (btrfs-zero-log no longer present)

                    Again, this is the version of initramfs-tools in PROPOSED pocket.

                    NO-ONE SHOULD BE USING PACKAGES FROM PROPOSED :P :P

                    Packages in proposed are IN PROPOSED until they can be confirmed that they don't break things.

                    As you can see from the proposed migration excuses page, the proposed version is thoroughly borked.

                      Thank you.

                      I'm running 20.04 on my laptop; not my production rig; so I wasn't worried.

                      Muon Package Manager wouldn't let me get into Configure Software Sources; as soon as I typed in my password it updated the package list and returned me to that list. Launched Discover and went to Settings. I scrolled down and see that I have Focal proposed (multiverse universe restricted main) marked.

                      This is the first issue I've had with Focal since I installed it (and had that repository marked). Like I said; not my production rig.

                      I'll just leave it on; won't reboot; and run apt update && apt full-upgrade periodically until the issue resolves.

                      I do thank you for the precise explanation of the issue.

                        I'm taking to the uploader. They are going to try to fix it soon.

                            Thank you for the great information in your posts. Would it be better to keep the proposed active until this issue clears and then make it inactive, or if we uncheck proposed will the fix generate when ready?

                              It appears the fix has uploaded already. Installed fine.
