[Bug 1928604] Re: ubuntu-advantage-tools should not be auto-installed on supported Ubuntu releases

[Norbert]

In other words ubuntu-minimal should not depend on ubuntu-advantage-tools for supported releases.
You can make this dependency time-based. For example in 2023-05 add this dependency for 18.04 LTS. But currently it is not needed.

Title:
  ubuntu-advantage-tools should not be auto-installed on supported
  Ubuntu releases

Status in ubuntu-advantage-tools package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I understand that Canonical thinks about financial profit. It is
  business and it is good.

  But please do not install ubuntu-advantage-tools to supported releases
  like 18.04 LTS, 20.04 LTS and 21.04. It may confuse users. Users do
  not expect ESM existence on supported systems.
