Re: Apt periodic doesn't work

[Jayson Willson <jaysonwillson245@gmail.com>]

There is only one empty file named unattended-upgrades-shutdown.log in 
this directory.
unattended-upgrades:
Initial blacklisted packages:
Initial whitelisted packages:
Starting unattended upgrades script
Allowed origins are: ['origin=Debian,codename=jessie,label=Debian-Security']
No packages found that can be upgraded unattended

There are really no packages to upgrade, because in the morning I ran 
apt update and apt upgrade manually. Actually, I do not want packages to 
upgrade automatically, I only need checking for upgrades and downloading 
them.

My computer is not a laptop

Yours sincerely, Jayson Willson
