Public bug reported:

* Impact

The package is currently built with malcontent disabled because the
package was in universe.

The corresponding MIR is now approved, including for Noble (lp:
#1892456). The package got promoted in Oracular already.

The malcontent library is needed to provide parental control integration
with something OEM partners need (new regulations make the feature
mandatory to sell new devices in France starting this summer, other
countries are following)

* Test case

- log as an admin user
- install malcontent-gui (we don't plan to install it by default due to depends 
issues but oem will)
- create another non admin user (if there isn't already one existing)
- start gnome-control-center
- switcht to the users panel
- select the other users in the right pane

-> a 'parental control' entry should be displayed

* Regression potential

The option is just display an entry to start the malcontent-gui
interface. A problem would only impact the users panel, if the patch was
wrong it could be impact on the layout of that page or showing that item
when it shouldn't

* Other information

We will need to promote the malcontent source and libmalcontent-0-0
binary. Since we can't promote things in release it means we will need
to coordinate with an archive admin to copy the package in noble-updates
and promote it there

** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: High
         Status: Fix Released
