If you are using the unattended-upgrades package, you can set it to
send you emails. Those emails will let you know which packages are
upgraded, and if a reboot is required. See
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades.

Aside from your use case, I highly recommend doing so if your hard
drive is encrypted.
