Answer:
I tried to replicate and had same issues as you. But an alternative approach worked for me. You may try that, preferably on fresh ubuntu instance.

cd /tmp/ sudo wget https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/83.0.4103.39/chromedriver_linux64.zip sudo unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip sudo mv chromedriver /usr/bin/chromedriver chromedriver --version |
install google-chrome-stable current version (83)

wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb sudo apt install ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb |
check installation

google-chrome-stable --version |
install selenium

pip3 install selenium --user |
The installation is successful in my tests, but I haven’t verified if selenium works as intended. I only focused on whether chrome and selenium install.
