Glad if I can help :-)
My unattended-upgrades is version 0.86.3. It updated today from version
0.86.2. I do have
from gettext import lgettext as _
(at line 44).
The output of locale is:
# locale
LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="de_DE.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Currently it doesn't crash because I just manually updated all my
packages (apt-get update, apt-get upgrade). Guess I will have to wait
with generating more debug info until some package updates are available
in the repos.
Let me know what you want me to try out next.

Hi Michael,
Hi Frank,
Thanks for looking into the issue. I'm getting almost the exact same
error
message. It started a few weeks ago. The issue is reproducible
whether I run
unattended-upgrades from the shell or from cron.
Thanks a lot for helping me to track down this issue! Great to have
someone who can reproduce the issue, I really want to track down this
issue so its awsome to have you to help and answer all my questions :)
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 815, in
send_summary_mail
host(), res)
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for %: 'bytes' and 'tuple'
This statement is causing the error on my system:
subject = _("unattended-upgrades result for '%s': '%s'") %
(host(), res)
res argument is 'None'. host() is a string.
type(_("unattended-upgrades
result for '%s': '%s'")) is <class 'bytes'>. Shouldn't this be
string?
This smeels like a clue:
type(_("unattended-upgrades result for '%s': '%s'")
should indeed be "str" instead of bytes.
What version of unattended-upgrades do you have?
$ apt list unattended-upgrades
will tell you.
Do you have in the unattended-upgrades binary the lines:
"""
from gettext import lgettext as _
"""
My
locale is de_DE.UTF-8. gettext on the shell does return a
translation:
# gettext unattended-upgrades "unattended-upgrades result for
'%s':
'%s'"
Unattended-Upgrades-Ergebnis für »%s«: %s
If I change the message to be translated, unattended-upgrades
continues, but
complains about another _(...) message further down.
Now I'm lost. Any help is greatly appreciated.
What is the output of "locale"?
Thanks,
Michael
