Ah, well spotted. Several programs should vary their UI depending on whether canonical-livepatch is installed. update-manager is one of them (this bug); software-properties is another; and gnome-initial-setup is another.
Bug 1770686 reveals that the Livepatch settings in software-properties depend, in turn, on the gnome-online-accounts-panel in gnome-control- center. This isn’t a package-level dependency: you can still install and use software-properties without gnome-online-accounts, you just don’t see the Livepatch feature. So I guess anything linking to the software- properties Livepatch UI should check for the existence of that panel *and* of software-properties itself. That doesn’t change the UI design for this bug (if you can’t turn on Livepatch, it’s not “available”), but it will affect the implementation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1807900 Title: update-manager suggests to use Livepatch, which is not available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/1807900/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
