[Bug 1686183] Re: Ship ubuntu-advantage in ubuntu-minimal

[Steve Langasek]

This package needs to be brought forward to post-trusty releases, but
the motd script currently hard-codes 12.04 in its message so this
shouldn't be a straight forward-copy.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Allow ubuntu-advantage users to access the extended security
  maintenance script with a simple command line tool.  This script needs
  to hit precise machines and be easy for ubuntu-advantage customers to
  enable, thus basefiles was chosen as a home.

  [Test Case]

   * Run ubuntu-advantage, it should print out help
   * Run sudo ubuntu-advantage enable <token> (without sudo it will warn you), but you need to be an ubuntu-advantage customer to get that token.  In the end, the script simply adds and removes an /etc/apt/sources.list.d entry.
   * you can contact me (dpb at canonical.com) if you would like a token for test purposes.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Low, this is a new script, not included in any automated startup
  paths.

  [Other Info]

   * http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2017/03/ubuntu-1204-esm.html
