Unattended Upgrades Ran Anyway.
Due to the recent traffic about the defective kernel in Bookworm
(12.3), I shut down unattended-upgrades on all my machines (Bookworm
and Bullseye). To my surprise, three of them ran unattended-upgrades
anyway.
One of them is Bullseye, so it was a harmless error. But still….
The two Bookworm machines are recent installations, to 12.2 as
upgraded. Fortunately, in both cases the upgrade failed because someone
was smart enough to pull the plug on the defective kernel. My thanks to
that someone.
I double checked this morning. All machines had unattended upgrades
shut off as of yesterday evening, well before the unattended-uogrades
ran.
