To finish the nice block in /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade, the following call is used: os.nice(0) Since the argument is interpreted as incremental, this should be: os.nice(-19) Without this fix, this problem is back: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=701850 "unattended-upgrades: nice 19/ionice idle inherited by restarted processes" Found in the trusty version (0.82.1ubuntu2), but probably in any version (including Debian) since 0.81.
