Just an update, for what it's worth. I solved this problem with a shell script triggered by Network Manager's "up" hook. Because UU does not update the package list, I had to resort to a `apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade` with `DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive` and a whole bunch of options to make sure everything runs reliably in the background. Convoluted and laborious.
But now my Ubuntu is *always* up to date. Before, it regularly went *months* without a security update. Putting aside whose fault it is, this absolutely IS a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1886161 Title: Unattended upgrades should work on roaming laptops To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1886161/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
