[Bug 1998872] Re: unattended-updates failing in kinetic as AC power detection is bugged

[Gordon Lack]

All of which should be irrelevant, as it is still an issue in Lunar
*and* Jammy (the latest LTS).

What is the point in reporting a bug against a non-LTS version if the
response it to do nothing then close it 6-momnths later when that
release goes out of support, without any one checking whether it is
still an issue on the latest release?

NOTE: that this is still an issue on the current LTS release (Jammy)
*and* on Lunar. Just closing this report does not make the bug go away.

Bug description:
  The ConditionACPower testing code does not work correctly on some
  systems. This prevents the unattended-updates systemd service running
  as it thinks that a system (a NUC10i3FNYHN) is running on battery. It
  isn't - it just has  a power supply that can *provide* power over USB.

  This (unattended-updrades) was OK in Jammy, but started to fail when I
  upgraded to Kinetic.

  (A systemd override file for apt-daily-upgrade.service to remove the
  condition gets the service working again.)

  The problem is similar (or perhaps identical) to the problem with the
  on_ac_power script (from the powermgmt-base package).

  That has been reported in bug #1980991.  There are more details there.
