That file is the default anyway, from unattended-upgrades. It took me a
bit of time to find again where this is being done in the installer
(it's in pkgsel), but I remembered fixing it a few months ago.

APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "0";
APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "0";
Despite whatever the configuration might be in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
/50unattended-upgrades. As such, automatic upgrades should not be
happening.
The change isn't yet in xenial, so I'm updating this bug to reflect the
state of things at the moment and the fact that yakkety should be
checked again carefully to make sure the config is as intended.
