This remains broken in ubuntu-drivers.  There is absolutely no
difference between what is installed when doing

ubuntu-drivers install

and

ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu

but significant difference when using

ubuntu-drivers install nvidia:470-server

the first two install exactly the same package set and the latter
installs a much smaller subset.

If you actually expect that the first two install the exact same package
set, why does --gpgpu exist in the first place?  If the expectation is
that --gpgpu means VER-server, then this remains broken since last year.
And if the expectation exists in the middle, then perhaps we need a
--gpgpu-server to install the packages from the last example?

I guess the first question for this bug is "What EXACTLY is expected
when installing using --gpgpu" and then "how do we resolve this bug"

Title:
  ubuntu-drivers --gpgpu is not installing -server packages

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Discovered while testing the ubuntu-drivers-common package in
  -proposed for bug LP:1898601

  While waiting on bionic to deploy for verification, something was
  bugging me about Focal verification from the other day so I re-
  deployed a DL380 with 4x T4 GPGPUs with Focal and added u-d-c from
  proposed.  What I missed when verifying the other day was that it
  actually isn't installing the -server package on my server in gpgpu
  mode.  After chatting a bit with Alberto, --gpgpu is supposed to
  install the nvidia-driver-VER-server package. Instead, the version in
  -proposed is actually installing nvidia-driver-VER which is incorrect.

  Attached is a tarball from a fresh focal install that includes the
  output when doing 'ubuntu-drivers --gpgpu install' and 'ubuntu-drivers
  --gpgpu debug' after installing the driver.
