Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.80~exp2
With the default configuration file package selection will be done based on
Suite, not Codename:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:
...
Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
...
"origin=Debian,archive=stable,label=Debian-Security";
};
...
This means that, after a new Debian release migrates to stable,
unattended-upgrades will happily install packages from that new release.
Security updates are intended to not break anything, but only if the update is
for the same Debian release. I think the default configuration should contain
something like this instead:
...
"origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security";
...
This way, only updates for the current release will be installed, and the
administrator wouldn't need to edit the configuration file each time a new
Debian version is released.
