I have tested this and it does NOT work. I fixed the issue in couple of different ways:
One way is completely remove the unit (who in right mind does install updates during reboot on production servers?). I will be actively doing that on all machines I encounter. Another way is this: sed -i 's#/var/run/#/run/#g' /usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown So the problem with that sed is that the logging part will fail. So not really a solution. Systemd has proven to be inconsistent pile of crap so far... I could not make systemd to run this unit before local-fs.target. It appears that the documentation is misleading... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1654600 Title: unattended-upgrade-shutdown hangs when /var is a separate filesystem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1654600/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
