However, u-a somehow executes 'dpkg' even if no package is upgraded. Why? In README.gz I read this: | All operations will be logged in /var/log/unattended-upgrades/. This | includes the dpkg output as well. This is fine when there is something to upgrade. But why execute 'dpkg' on every execution? Isn't there some other way to determine if there are some packages to upgrade?
