** Description changed:

- ubuntu-drivers-common fails when no PATH environment variable is passed:
+ SRU Request:
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * ubuntu-drivers-common fails when no PATH environment variable is
+ passed:
  
  https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/52d04f39f8cbdb77d65ec57f19a5801284c1e2b0
  
  
- While the reasons why the PATH variable is empty are unknown, the 
ubuntu-drivers tools should not fail, and we can assume that a minimal PATH 
(such as /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin) would apply to the system.
+  * While the reasons why the PATH variable is empty are unknown, the 
ubuntu-drivers tools should be more robust and not fail, and we can expect a 
minimal PATH (such as /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin) to be available on the 
system.
+ 
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 
+  * Install ubuntu-drivers-common from the -proposed repository.
+ 
+  * Call the ubuntu drivers tool passing the "devices" parameter:
+    ubuntu-drivers devices
+ 
+  * Call the ubuntu drivers tool passing the "devices" parameter and an empty 
PATH variable:
+    PATH="" /usr/bin/ubuntu-drivers devices
+ 
+  * Neither case should fail any more.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+  * Low. Nothing really changes in the functioning if the PATH variable
+ is not empty.
