Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.79.3 Severity: minor Tags: patch When adapting /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades just after installation to my needs, I just uncomment a few of the given example configuration lines.
Unfortunately that doesn't work for the following line: //Unattended-Upgrade::Mail "root" because it is missing a semicolon at the end of the line, which will make apt* based commands complain about a syntax errot in the respective config line. Please add the missing semicolon. Patch attached.
