Absolutely; I totally agree.

Bug description:
  Sometime betweek August 28 and September 4 2021 the ubuntu:impish
  images published on dockerhub began erroring when executing the
  commands defined in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/docker-clean.

  I have this reproducer, which is probably not as minimal as it can be
  but looks reliable:

  1. docker run -it --rm ubuntu:impish bash
  2. apt update
  3. apt install git
  4. apt -y remove git

  This results in:

  E: Problem executing scripts DPkg::Post-Invoke 'rm -f /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/*.deb /var/cache/apt/*.bin || true'
  E: Sub-process returned an error code

  *Removing* a package is not strictly needed to trigger the failure,
  but it seems that *two* apt operations are needed to trigger it, so
  this reproducer found by athos-ribeiro also works:

  docker run -it --rm ubuntu:impish /bin/bash -c 'apt-get update; apt-
  get full-upgrade -y; apt-get install -y jq'

  This doesn't happen when using ubuntu:hirsute.
