Hi,
thanks for your bug report. I'm not quite sure what you are experiencing
here, you likely have manually removed a package that depended on the
drivers and then caused them to become autoremovable. Though usually I'd
have expected the drivers to be installed manually.
We are going to need to see /var/log/apt/history.log of previous
transactions, and possibly your /var/lib/dpkg/status to know which
packages are installed. And if at all possible, the dpkg.status file
from before this in /var/backups/.
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
