Thank you for the bug report, indeed there is something weird with
software-properties

Starting a focal iso in virtual, sofware-properties-gtk lists VMware
drivers with only with continue manual mode available, but 'sudo ubuntu-
drivers install' does install open-vm-tools

seems rather an issue with the gui

** Tags added: focal rls-ff-incoming

** Package changed: ubuntu-drivers-common (Ubuntu) => software-
properties (Ubuntu)
