Public bug reported:

No LSB modules are available.
Description:    Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS
Release:        24.04

timeshift:
  Installed: 24.01.1-1build2
  Candidate: 24.01.1-1build2
  Version table:
 *** 24.01.1-1build2 500
        500 http://apt.pop-os.org/ubuntu noble/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

To reproduce:

1. Make sure package btrfs-progs is not installed.
2. Install package timeshift. Note that it does not depend on btrfs-progs.
3. Setup timeshift according to instructions.
4. Try to make a snapshot from command line:

> sudo timeshift --create --comments test

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: SUCCESSFUL SNAPSHOT

ACTUAL BEHAVIOUR:
Note that it fails with several errors, the first being:
"E: Failed to execute child process “btrfs” (No such file or directory)"
5. Install package btrfs-progs.
6. Repeat step 4 and note that is does not fail.

Probable cause: Package timeshift should depend on package btrfs-progs.
