It will.  However, we are looking at merging the core functionality into
the casper package itself.  There is no evident reason to have this in a
separate package which advertises itself as Wubi-related.

Title:
  Please remove lupin from the archive

Status in lupin package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  lupin is an Ubuntu native package that was used to facilitate WUBI
  installs of Ubuntu. However, WUBI is no longer a product Canonical
  produces or supports and subsequently we don't need to be keeping
  lupin around. Nothing depends on the source package or its binaries.

  [  1:30PM 11986 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]
   $ reverse-depends -r jammy src:lupin
  [  1:30PM 11987 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]
   $ reverse-depends -r focal src:lupin
  [  3:22PM 11993 ]  [ bdmurray at impulse:~/Downloads ]

  Having said that livecd-rootfs does try and install lupin-casper when
  building Ubuntu images but that is cruft but may need to be removed
  from livecd-rootfs before the package is removed.
