Getting no results from apt-get upgrade after a week. Can install

find this unusual. Did a mail list archive search for this, but
didn't find anything specific. Or did I miss the solution?
My Test Setup:
Stretch Stable 64-bit from net-install disk in Virtualbox 5.1 on a
Wheezy host. Basic terminal install (no GUI), converted to sysvinit
(did not do anything to systemd files. Kept as dependencies) and
then added xorg, openbox window manager, etc.
Thanks for any feedback.

dpkg -s unattended-upgrades
Not installed either by me or the installer
If it is installed, it did your updates and security upgrades for you.
If you do not like it and want to do manual updates/upgrades, do with
root privs:
I have always done this manually since I first started using Debian
(Sarge). And always will. This is my personal machine.
sed -i 's/1/0/g' /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades

Thanks for the reference. I've been aware of this for a long time, but
chose not to use it.
My problem must be something else.
You also have packagekit and discover to deal with and who knows what
else. Stopping auto-install is not that difficult, but stopping
auto-update is a problem.
