Public bug reported: at least focal and jammy are affected automatic updates installed "python3.10:amd64 3.10.12-1~22.04.6" tonight. This updated does not contain functions/classes required by unattended-upgrade. It resulted in broken status-emails for me, otherwise I would not have seen.
One could argue that the bug is with python3.10, since there should be no breaking changes in LTS. Sep 17 06:05:01 xxx systemd[1]: Starting Daily apt upgrade and clean activities...
