Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 2.1 Severity: serious Today I noticed that packages with conffile prompts are no longer skipped, which can lead to upgrade failures because dpkg stdin is not connected to any terminal. I think this is a regression since the work to enable pinning to work with unattended-upgrades.

What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
