This module is a way to silence warnings about not having the core Update Status module installed and configured on a site. It has only a few use cases:
- The paranoid, tinfoil hat people who don't want Drupal.org to have any information about the modules installed on their sites, even at the expense of their sites being secure.
- Large organizations with their own Drupal distribution who want to handle the flow of update notifications.
- Organizations who use a third party administration service which manages updates for them
- Distributions whom need to control how updates are created.
If you do not fall under these use cases, you probably should not use this module.
The 8.x-1.x branch will prevent core's Update status module from being enabled, by design. Please see http://drupal.org/node/282919#comment-1074620 for more details. It is hidden from the UI and can only be enabled by directly editing the core.extension.yml config file and re-importing site configuration.
The 2.0.x branch uses a different (less invasive) approach. It is a normal module that can be installed or uninstalled via the admin UI. It only hides the warning generated on the Status report (/admin/reports/status) when Update Status is not installed. But it does not prevent installing Update Status like the 8.x-1.x branch does.
