Sounds like something you should take up with the Ubuntu packagers. I
maintain a Gentoo ebuild for rpi-imager (it's in my overlay...sudo eselect
repository enable salfter && sudo emaint sync -r salfter), and it works like
a champ.
More recently, I've migrated my print server (an ancient RPi Model B) from
Raspbia^H^H^H^H^H^H^HRPi OS to Alpine, and it's running headless. The
Alpine install needed to be done on a spare Raspberry Pi, but once it was up
and running with ssh access, I was able to do the rest of the setup over the
network. Once I had it configured as I wanted it, I brought the MicroSD card
over to another computer to image it and shipped the image home so I could
blast it onto an SD card. It's a much lighter-weight system now...could put
it on a 128MB SD card, if I had one that small. :) The server runs headless,
with just two printers, a network cable, and a power supply plugged in.
