Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.97 Severity: normal Hi,
I grepped through UU code and could not find any reference to "apt-utils" contents. Then I replaced apt-utils package with a fake empty one built with "equivs". Everything still run fine. apt-utils dependency was added at the very start of UU development, I guess the needed functionality is now handled by python-apt.
