jockey has been removed from Ubuntu 14.04 at last. It's been deprecated in favor of ubuntu-drivers-common and software-properties (KDE has a GUI for it now, too). It should just be removed during dist-upgrade.

summary: - jockey-text crashes with AttributeError: 'module' object has no
- attribute 'InstallProgress'
+ jockey-text crashes with AttributeError - clean up jockey in upgrades to

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-drivers-common - 1:0.2.91.4

---------------
ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.2.91.4) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Force removal of jockey on upgrades. It has been replaced with
    ubuntu-drivers-common two cycles ago, removed from trusty, and now just
    crashes due to API changes in aptdaemon. (LP: #1216193)
