Bug#319339: apt: Incorrect documentation in /etc/cron.daily/apt



Package: apt
Version: 0.6.38
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The description of the various parameters in /etc/cron.daily/apt says that you
can set a variable called "APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval", but the code
actually looks for a variable in apt.conf called "APT::Periodic::Autoclean".

Here's the patch:
