** Description changed:

  Package: ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  Version: 1:10.2.1+ds-1ubuntu4
  
- The package ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe install a hook to Apt
+ The package ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe installs a hook to Apt
  (/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-ubuntu-virt.conf) which is not properly removed
  when this package is removed. The workaround is to either immediately
  purge the package while it is still installed or to manually remove the
  Apt hook. Removing and then purging does not work.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  
  sudo apt install ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  sudo apt remove ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  sudo apt install hello
  
  Output:
  ...
  Error: Sub-process /usr/bin/apt_hook_ubuntu_virt returned an error code (127)
  Error: Failure running script /usr/bin/apt_hook_ubuntu_virt
  
  Workaround 1:
  sudo rm /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99-ubuntu-virt.conf
  sudo apt purge ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  sudo apt install hello
  
  Workaround 2:
  sudo apt install ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  sudo apt purge ubuntu-helper-virt-hwe
  sudo apt install hello
