Title:
  [UIFe] Notification for livepatch are not shown.

Status in update-notifier package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  User Interface Freeze Exception Justification
  =============================================
  Livepatch notifications are not shown in Bionic. We need an UIFe because new translatable strings need to be added. The translatable strings appear
  in Desktop Files marked as "NoDisplay=True", so the impact of non-translated strings should be minimum.

  Original Bug Description
  ========================
  update-notifier uses a Systemd path unit to show notifications regarding Canonical Livepatch updates. The systemd path unit requires graphical-session.target (not working in Bionic). A possible solution is to autostart the path unit at startup.
