This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-drivers-common -
1:0.8.4~0.20.04.2
---------------
ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.8.4~0.20.04.2) focal; urgency=medium
* gpu-manager.c:
- Use the full multiarch path for the X11 libraries.
ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.8.4~0.20.04.1) focal; urgency=medium
* UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
detect-plugins/sl-modem.py:
- Avoid triggering test_static.py
with "E741 ambiguous variable name 'l'" error.
* ubuntu-drivers:
- Rework the argument parser to allow passing in
driver and vendor for the "install" case
(LP: #1881586).
- Do not print an error when linux-modules cannot
be found. This prevents the ubuntu-drivers tools
from printing misleading warnings, as seen in
LP:#1882402.
- Add support for the new -server NVIDIA drivers
(LP: #1881586).
* debian/control:
- Depend on python3-click (for the argument
parsing code).
- Drop dependency on dpkg-dev (LP: #1880564).
* gpu-manager.c:
- Add get_system_architecture() (to drop the
dpkg-dev dependency).

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
SRU Request:
[Test Case]
1) Uninstall the dpkg-dev package.
2) Enable the -proposed repository, and install the new ubuntu-
drivers-common (0.8.4~0.20.04.1).
3) Check that the dpkg-dev package was not installed.
3) Restart your computer, and see if everything works correctly when
accessing the desktop.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The new get_system_architecture() function is very small, and replaces
dpkg-architecture for our use-case.
_______
In bug 1875339, a depends on dpkg-dev was added. This is pulling in all of
build-essential on upgrades (or just binutils and make and patch if you pass
--no-install-recommends).
This needs to be reverted and fixed differently.
