[Bug 657708] [NEW] package nvidia-current 260.19.06-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 

Public bug reported:

While testing the live USB image to see if my hardware drivers would be
supported (manually installing the current NVIDIA drivers fails in
10.04), the installation failed with something about "abortArchive()" --
so it might just be something about the default live user account
("ubuntu") cannot install the driver, but I do not know.
