Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error on your system when trying to install a particular package. Please execute the following command, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal:
sudo apt-get clean Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue, but the failure could be caused by filesystem or memory corruption. So please also run a fsck on your filesystem(s) and a memory test. Thanks in advance! [This is an automated message. I apologize if it reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.] ** Tags added: corrupted-package ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1947047 Title: package libnvidia-compute-470 470.57.02-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: dpkg-deb --control subprocess returned error exit status 2 Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-470 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I was just running updates on updates software on my fresh installed ubuntu and encountered package system is broken error.
