[Bug 1554099] [NEW] Changing what action for security updates unusable

[flocculant]

Public bug reported:

Open software-properties.

Important security updates is not enabled on install.

Secondly - it is not possible to change the action to take with security
updates even if it is enabled (note: I enabled security updates,
reloaded cache and restarted software-properties before trying to change
the action)

eg - the Display Immediately/Download automatically/Download and install
automatically
