Confirmed, and I've fixed it upstream now:

urlfetcher: Fix ubuntu --location $iso arch detection
The logic changed for scraping the arch out of the URL string, I revived some
of the old way of doing it to fix things.

With that change, virt-install finds the installer on the ISO and I'm able to successfully create Ubuntu Server VMs from the command line using --location and --options together.
THANK YOU!
The Ubuntu install does seem to be going out on the network to find packages that are already on the ISO, but I think it also does that if I do a physical install (with the ISO on a bootable USB). I don't know enough about the Linux/Ubuntu install to know if that is normal or not.
