Bug Description

After this commit (https://github.com/openstack/fuel-library/commit/57911011587fbf24b9e68b2a67fc3f6d1bef967e) package acct is installed on Ubuntu based nodes. Even though atop process accounting is disabled (as by default) package itself provides init and cron files that keep accounting enabled. Accounting information is written to /var/log/account/pacct file, and this file is rotated by cron script daily keeping up to 30 rotations. It leads to spending a lot of space for information that isn't used.

This could be fixed by setting ACCT_ENABLE to "0" in /etc/default/acct after package installation or simply by not installing acct package if process accounting isn't enabled.
