Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.79.4 Severity: important Hi,
unattended-upgrades normally sends an email when there is a package that's not going to be installed because of a modified conffile. When u-a installs other packages in the same run, the mail doesn't get sent out. Unattended-Upgrade::MailOnlyOnError is set to "true".
