Do you remember fglrx? That was AMD/ATI proprietary video driver. In 2011, this bug was reported. It caused problems with system updates. <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer-updates/+bug/825339> <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/nvidia-common/+bug/873058> Yesterday, the bug status was changed from "confirmed" to "Won't Fix". Bad: that's a long time for addressing a very simple bug. Bad: they didn't fix it Good: they didn't ignore it, after all these years.
