[Test Case] 1. Install kernel packages to be automatically removed: # eatmydata apt install linux-image-4.18.0-13-generic linux-image-4.18.0-14-generic linux-image-4.18.0-15-generic # apt-mark auto linux-image-4.18.0-13-generic linux-image-4.18.0-14-generic linux-image-4.18.0-15-generic # /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal 2. Set up u-u to perform action in non-minimal steps: # grep Minimal /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades Unattended-Upgrade::MinimalSteps "false"; 3. Run u-u in dry-run mode. Observe it failing with not fixed versions: # unattended-upgrade --dry-run Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1998, in <module> sys.exit(main(options)) File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1798, in main options.verbose or options.debug, options.dry_run) File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1495, in do_auto_remove if res: UnboundLocalError: local variable 'res' referenced before assignment Observe the fixed version running properly: # ./unattended-upgrade --dry-run # [Regression Potential] * The fix is very small and isolated, but a programming error could cause the misreporting of the success of auto-removals. Considering the size and simplicity of the change, regressions here seem unlikely.
