[Bug 2068805] Re: "Install Now" button disappears for good if all packages unselected and Ubuntu Pro packages are shown but unavailable

[Nathan Teodosio]

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
  If one deselects all packages, the "Install Now" button disappears,
  which makes sense (on another note it would make even more sense if it
  was simply grayed out). However when one or more packages are then re-
  selected, the button won't ever reappear, and update-manager must be
  restarted in order to upgrade any packages.
  
- update-manager 1:24.04.6 (Ubuntu 24.04)
+ [Test case]
+ 
+ *If 'apt list --upgradable' is empty, downgrade any one package in your system.
+ *ua detach --assume-yes
+ *apt install hello
+ *update-manager
+ -There will be at least one update available, and the hello package will be unavailable under the 'Ubuntu Pro security updates' section.
+ *De-select all available packages.
+ -The 'install now' button disappears.
+ *Select at least one available package.
+ -The 'install now' button should reappear.
+ 
+ [Where things could go wrong]
+ 
+ Things could go wrong with the 'install now' button. It should be
+ visible when there is any available package selected and not visible
+ when there is none selected.

** Summary changed:

- "Install Now" button disappears for good if all packages unselected and Ubuntu Pro packages are shown but unavailable
+ [SRU] "Install Now" button disappears for good if all packages unselected and Ubuntu Pro packages are shown but unavailable
