This bug was fixed in the package update-manager - 1:16.04.23

---------------
update-manager (1:16.04.23) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Don't crash if the end-points of the Pro API fail (LP: #2064211).

update-manager (1:16.04.22) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Replace Popen to 'ua security-status --format=json' by the Ubuntu Pro API.
    The former is not stable enough and would break the program once in a
    while when something unrelated to Update Manager (Livepatch, for instance)
    went awry. The updates() end point from the API, on the other hand,
    does not raise exceptions. LP: #2058133.

update-manager (1:16.04.21) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Fix autopkgtest (linter errors).

update-manager (1:16.04.20) xenial; urgency=medium

  * d/control: Depend on ubuntu-advantage-tools >= 30~.
    Fixes edge case whereby the program crashes upon an incomplete
    response from ua security-status (LP: #2049785).
  * The New Release dialog should take precedence over a list of updates dialog
    if the latter would only show Ubuntu Pro updates in an unattached system.
    (LP: #2051115).

update-manager (1:16.04.19) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Add back removed widgets to UI file to fix crash when updating
    Upgrade Manager from inside itself (LP: #2045918).

update-manager (1:16.04.18) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Implement the new Ubuntu Pro design (lp: #1990450).
    - Fuse the description and changes tabs into a single view.
    - Add button to attach to enable Ubuntu Pro if it is the only action
      available.
    - Ubuntu base -> System components.
    - Fix Ubuntu Pro item not being a parent group of its corresponding
      packages.
    - Fix incorrect available version for Ubuntu Pro updates in unattached case
      (LP: #2043425).

Bug description:
  * Impact

  If Pro is not enabled, then the details pane against a Pro update
  misleads the user into believing that there is no update available.

  Example of someone being misled:
  https://inteltechniques.com/blog/2023/11/12/ubuntu-pro-shenanigans/

  Expected results: either no details presented, or the actual details
  of the potential Pro update presented

  Actual results: a message that implies that there is no update
  available for this package, Pro or not.

  * Test Case

  Install the update on a system not attached to Pro, select an update
  in the Pro section, check the 'Version available' string, it should
  reflect the version that would be installed if pro was enabled

  * Regression potential

  The change is in the code getting the available version to display, if
  the logic was wrong it could lead to have the 'available version'
  label being missing or incorrect. The code could hit an exception if
  there was not non expected value
