[Bug 1757282] [NEW] Software Updater downloads updates automatically although downloads are deselected in the settings

[Arto Teräs]

Public bug reported:

The software updater downloads updates automatically, although I have
deselected automatic downloads in the settings. My settings are:

Automatically check for updates: Daily
When there are security updates: Display immediately
When there are other updates: Display weekly

With these settings, I would expect the updater to notify me about
available updates and ask if I want to download and install them. That's
how it worked previously. However, now when showing the available
updates the updater says they have already been downloaded.

I am running Ubuntu 17.10 (amd64) and the software-properties-gtk
package version is 0.96.24.17.
