$ kms-universal-planes
Command 'kms-universal-planes' not found, but can be installed with:
sudo apt install libdrm-tests

$ sudo apt install libdrm-tests

Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.

I can confirm this behaviour on Ubuntu 22.10. The package suggestions come from command-not-found, maybe the list of available binaries hasn't been updated.

From what I can tell an old version of the package did provide kms-universal-planes but the new version does not. In http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/kinetic/universe/cnf/Commands-amd64.xz we can see:

25486 name: libdrm-tests
25487 version: 2.4.110-1ubuntu1
25488 commands: amdgpu_stress,drmdevice,kms-steal-crtc,kms-universal-planes,modeprint,modetest,proptest,vbltest

The date of the file is from 2022-06-27 which is well before the Kinetic release so this could be an issue with the server providing the cnf data.

@Michael Vogt - the command-not-found extractor was broken for a while (due to a crash in python-apt) and so the indexes were not being updated. Is there someway to update the kinetic release cnf indexes post release so that kms-universal-planes is removed?

@Brian Once the archive is frozen this is not entirely trivial anymore as the command-not-found indexfile is stored in the now frozen archive mirror.

It seems the easiest way to fix is:
* uploading a higher version in the -updates pocket should fix the problem automatically, the database code (CommandNotFound/db/creator.py:_parse_single_commands_file()) should discard the content of older versions. There are some useful ways to control what commands are visible from the pkg, you could use "X-Cnf-Ignore-Commands: kms-universal-planes" on the "libdrm-tests" binary package stanza (see what-is-python for an example)

Given that common-not-found is working in Lunar, I've marked this as "Fix Release" and marked Kinetic as "Confirmed". Thanks.
