Bug Description

I have a package which installs an APT configuration file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/98foo. That file contains a bunch of configuration keys (APT::Update::*-Invoke*, APT::Get::*, DPkg::*-Invoke, APT::Periodic::*, Unattended-Upgrade::*). For some reason, when Subiquity is done and the system has been booted, that file is missing. I was able to verify that it was there after the installation of the package, though.

I suspect that subiquity/Install/install/postinstall/restore_apt_config/* has something to do with it. Can you please examine, why the config goes missing?

I think we've probably recently fixed this in the course of other work. Are you able to test the 'edge' branch? https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/how-to-test-the-latest-version-of-subiquity/12428
