Assuming that this bug is indeed fixed in Ubuntu-16.04 with unattended- upgrades 0.90ubuntu0.9, could someone please post an origin pattern that works?
I am not able to get unattended-upgrades to upgrade any packages, neither using the syntax suggested here https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/automatic-updates.html nor using "origin=Ubuntu,archive=${distro_codename},label=Ubuntu". See the relevant output (redacted) below...
