Public bug reported:

After an upgrade from impish to jammy, update-manager rightly notifies
me that livepatch should be available:

  The software on this computer is up to date.
  Tip: You can use Livepatch to keep your computer more secure between restarts.

However, when I click on the 'Settings & Livepatch' button to launch
software-properties-gtk, after attaching a UA subscription to this
machine (which I hadn't done previously), the Livepatch toggle is grayed
out.

ua status says:

$ ua status

$

Running 'sudo ua enable livepatch' reports:

Livepatch is not available for Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy Jellyfish).

So perhaps this is an issue of update-manager only checking that we're
on an LTS, rather than checking that the livepatch service is available
from the server?  But, that also means connectivity issues could result
in the user never being prompted to enable livepatch.

When is livepatch going to be available for 22.04 LTS?
