Attaching an Ubuntu Pro key fails when snapd is withheld

Hi ptdas,

Unfortunately, we need snapd to enable the Livepatch service, which is delivered as through a snap.
If you want to decide if that service is usefull for your machine or not, you can read more about this service here:
https://ubuntu.com/security/livepatch

However, if you still want to attach to your pro subscription, but don't want to use the Livepatch service, you can still attach using this mechanism:
https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-advantage-client/blob/main/docs/howtoguides/how_to_attach_with_config_file.md

You will need to specify which services you want to be enable in your machine in that configuration file and if you want to verify which services can be enabled on your machine you can perform a simulation following this guide:
https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-advantage-client/blob/main/docs/howtoguides/how_to_simulate_attach.md

Please let me know if those guides do not attend your needs or if you have more questions/problems with the tool

Another option is to:
- enable with `pro attach <your_token> --no-auto-enable`
- enable other services, such as ESM, but do not enable Livepatch.

In the SRU review it was noticed that the apt environment used to update the ESM cache is not really isolated from the system. For example, we noticed that the APT::Update::Pre-Invoke hook was called twice if a user ran just "apt update".

APT::Update::Pre-Invoke {
        "[ ! -e /run/systemd/system ] || systemctl start --no-block apt-news.service esm-cache.service || true";
};

https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/hkZyzKmjj8/ shows the hook being called twice: line 29, and line 45.

This happens because esm-cache.service, in the end, calls apt update again (via the python library). We just don't get a nasty loop here because systemd won't start a second copy of esm-cache.service.

This lack of isolation is a concern. All hooks from the system apt (defined in /etc/apt) will be called by the esm-only apt, maybe even in parallel, depending on timing. There are hooks to update stamp files, and motd. There are many unknowns here.

We discussed this at length with the Pro team, and will take the following approach:
- the Pro team work on isolating the esm-cache apt instance, and pull in only very specific configs from the system apt (/etc/apt), like proxy settings, and other settings they identify as being needed
- I will accept u-a-t into proposed, so that the other aspects of this SRU can be tested in parallel, but with the condition that: a) the Pro team will come up with a new set of fixes on top for the "shared config" issue identified above, and upload a new version to proposed; b) this package I'm accepting into proposed today MUST NOT be released. I will add a block-proposed tag to this bug to that effect
- when the improved package is ready to be uploaded, it shall be accepted in to proposed on top of today's package, and a new round of testing will be done. Initially only on top of the new changes, but if possible, the whole test suite.

I've followed the test case for all releases and confirmed the new version is behaving as expected. Logs attached. Marking verification-done

I verified all test logs and am satisfied that they followed the proposed test plan. Note that kinetic, not being an LTS release, isn't strictly affected, as there is no livepatch for it, but the test plan verified that no new error is introduced there.

The package built correctly in all architectures and ubuntu releases it was meant for.

There are no DEP8 regressions.

There is no SRU freeze ongoing at the moment.

There is no halted phasing for previous SRUs of ubuntu-advantage-tools.
