I'm getting an error when trying to restore an Akeeba backup in an Ubuntu 20.04 environment. See the attachment screen print for information.

One more of the busywork changes in PHP 8. I hadn't had the “pleasure” of coming across this one yet.

After extracting the archive and before you click on Run The Installer edit the file installation/framework/application/application.php line 219 and change it from

$sessionQueue = $this->container->session->get('application.queue');

to

$sessionQueue = $this->container->session->get('application.queue') ?: [];

This should get you up and running.
