Hi,

I discover the Ubuntu Advantage Tools package o my (private, 
non-business) computer (Currently at latest update level for XUbuntu 
20.04). I certainly never asked for this software!

When I try to remove this package I get a list of other packages which 
would be removed along with it, consisting of software which seems 
necessary to me for the overall functioning of my software. The list 
goes as follows:

     ttf-mscorefonts-installer
     ubuntu-minimal
     ubuntu-release-upgrader-gtk
     update-manager
     update-manager-core
     update-notifier
     update-notifier-common

How can I get rid of this unwanted (i.e. BLOATWARE...) stuff?

Several other packages react in the same way when I try to remove them, 
so I would be grateful for suggestions to achieve this!

Thanks,

Hans Jansen.
