Well, after upgrading, unattended-upgrades was launched daily as it should
be. The only problem then was that it didn't perform any package upgrade
even when there were things to upgrade.
After checking the /var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades.log, I
spotted the problem:

pkgs that look like they should be upgraded:
Fetched 0 B in 0s (0
B/s)

fetch.run() result: 0
blacklist: []
Packages that are auto removed: ''
InstCount=0 DelCount=0 BrokenCout=0
No packages found that can be upgraded unattended

The origin used by these packages is Raspbian, not Debian, so I updated my
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades file and changed all Debian
references by Raspbian and the problem seems to be solved by now.


Thanks all of you for your support.
