Package fwupd-signed is still installed, is it needed? Checked in https://cloud- images.ubuntu.com/releases/22.04/release/ubuntu-22.04-server-cloudimg- amd64.img and https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/mantic/current/mantic- server-cloudimg-amd64.img.

[Test Case] Build cloud images with livecd-rootfs and confirm that fwupd, modemmanager, and udisks2 are not present and not running. [Regression Potential] Only thing that might happen is for any of the 3 listed packages getting removed from images where they might be used. So possibly double-checking if this will affect preinstalled server images and if they care about this or not. [Original Description] Looking at memory utilization in a pristine Ubuntu lxd container (top -o RES), I see that ModemManager is running, which I was surprised to see is present at all in the stock image. Tracking this I find that fwupd depends on libmm-glib0, which in turn Recommends: modemmanager. Libraries in general should not recommend daemons, so it's possible this should be fixed by libmm-glib0 dropping this Recommends. It certainly doesn't seem to be a deliberate decision by the Server Team to have modemmanager installed and running by default on all systems.
