Package: cron-apt
Version: 0.4.14
Severity: normal

Hi,

at the moment, cron-apt checks for the refrain file and proceeds to
sleep after not finding the refrainfile. If the network connection
changes to "expensive" in this time period and the refrain file
appears, cron-apt does the update over the expensive connection
nevertheless.

cron-apt should in its process check for the refrain file more often
and terminate and/or mutate to a no-op if the refrain file is found.
Care needs to be taken if aborting later so that the output diffs are
not influenced by the aborted session.

Greetings
Marc
