[Bug 1641671] Please test proposed package

[Robie Basak]

Hello Jonathan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted update-notifier into bionic-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
notifier/3.192.1.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-bionic to verification-done-bionic. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-bionic. In either case, details of your
testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Noisy cron job for no-change processing

  [Test case]
  1. Install ttf-mscorefonts-installer, deny license
  2. Run /etc/cron.daily/update-notifier-common

  Should not show a processing message for it.

  [Regression potential]
  Error messages might be a bit harder to read.

  [Original bug report]
  I'm getting this over and over and over in email:

  Subject: Anacron job 'cron.daily' on [hostname]

  /etc/cron.daily/update-notifier-common:
  ttf-mscorefonts-installer: processing...

  That's the whole message.

  Please make it stop. ;-)
