Title:
  Remove ureadahead and libnih

Status in libnih package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ureadahead package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  ureadahead does not seem to be working at all these days - no profiles
  are being collected - and is the only thing left depending on libnih,
  so let's get rid of it, and then we can get rid of libnih as well.

  [Original report]
  Since on common platforms ureadahead solves nothing but causes a huge amount of garbage/totally useless error messages, which makes it really hard to extract the important messages from e.g. journalctl output,  it should be removed from ubuntu-minimal. If there are people, who need it, can still explicitly install it.
