Thanks for your bugreport. Fixing this is not hard, but it requires a (small) change to python-apt to export the information and a small patch to unattended-upgrade itself (both are already in unstable). If there is a chance that this might get accepted, I would love to get it in. Cheers, Michael -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
