so, we seem to have a dependency problem here, no? for reference, this is fixed by:
apt install linux-tools-common but why was "linux-tools-common" not installed as a part of "linux- tools-generic-hwe-18.04"? this is the dependency chain: root@ceph-osd03:~# apt-cache depends linux-tools-generic-hwe-18.04 linux-tools-generic-hwe-18.04 Depends: linux-tools-5.4.0-132-generic root@ceph-osd03:~# apt-cache depends linux-tools-5.4.0-132-generic linux-tools-5.4.0-132-generic Depends: linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132 root@ceph-osd03:~# apt-cache depends linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132 linux-hwe-5.4-tools-5.4.0-132 Depends: libc6 Depends: libcap2 Depends: libdw1 Depends: libelf1 Depends: liblzma5 Depends: libnuma1 Depends: libpci3 Depends: libslang2 Depends: libssl1.1 Depends: libudev1 Depends: libunwind8 Depends: zlib1g Depends: linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common root@ceph-osd03:~# apt-cache depends linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common Depends: lsb-release root@ceph-osd03:~# dpkg -S linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common: /usr/share/doc/linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common: /usr/share/doc/linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common/copyright linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common: /usr/share/doc/linux-hwe-5.4-tools-common/changelog.Debian.gz nothing installs /usr/bin/cpupower (that is, "linux-tools-common"). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-meta-hwe-5.4 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1914774 Title: HWE kernels do not ship linux-tools packages Status in linux-meta-hwe-5.4 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: While running kernel 5.4.0-64 today on bionic I noticed that Canonical kernel team does not provide a linux-hwe-5.4-tools package.
