Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt
DISCLAIMER: I don't code python, and don't usually post patches. So
please bear with me if I stick my foot in my mouth.
BACKGROUND: I have unattended-upgrades running on edgy with a well-
working setup. apache2-common didn't get upgraded automatically. Only
when I turned on debug logging I discovered this was because it had
"conffile prompt". To run unattended-upgrade with debug logging, I had
to edit the appropriate line in /etc/cron.daily/apt.
PATCH:
I propose a new config option "Unattended-Upgrade::Debug" which I set to "1" in
my /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades.
Now, I modified the /etc/cron.daily/apt script to respect this option and
launch unattended-upgrade with the --debug option:
--- /tmp/apt.org 2007-08-19 23:39:06.000000000 +0200
+++ /etc/cron.daily/apt 2007-08-19 23:30:29.000000000 +0200

I have filed a parallell "bug" report to the unattended-upgrades-
package, in case you think it should rather be fixed in /usr/bin
/unattended-upgrade.
