Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.93.1+nmu1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I'm trying to use this package to keep my unstable patched for security issues.
But there's no filter to match the priority of an upgrade.
So unattended-upgrades ignores updates like this:
ignoring ver 'vlc=2.2.6-1' with priority < 0
How can I make it select this for install instead of ignoring it ?

-- Configuration Files:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades changed:
// Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern controls which packages are
// upgraded.
//
// Lines below have the format format is "keyword=value,...". A
// package will be upgraded only if the values in its metadata match
// all the supplied keywords in a line. (In other words, omitted
// keywords are wild cards.) The keywords originate from the Release
// file, but several aliases are accepted. The accepted keywords are:
// a,archive,suite (eg, "stable")
// c,component (eg, "main", "contrib", "non-free")
// l,label (eg, "Debian", "Debian-Security")
// o,origin (eg, "Debian", "Unofficial Multimedia Packages")
// n,codename (eg, "jessie", "jessie-updates")
// site (eg, "http.debian.net")
// The available values on the system are printed by the command
// "apt-cache policy", and can be debugged by running
// "unattended-upgrades -d" and looking at the log file.
//
// Within lines unattended-upgrades allows 2 macros whose values are
// derived from /etc/debian_version:
// ${distro_id} Installed origin.
// ${distro_codename} Installed codename (eg, "jessie")

// Codename based matching:
// This will follow the migration of a release through different

// "o=Debian,n=jessie-proposed-updates";
// "o=Debian,n=jessie,l=Debian-Security";
// Archive or Suite based matching:
// Note that this will silently match a different release after
// migration to the specified archive (e.g. testing becomes the
// new stable).
