Bug#438559: apt: Apt::Periodic::* undocumented

[Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.7.6
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The Apt::Periodic::* statements used from /etc/cron.daily/apt are
undocumented in terms of manpages or READMEs. It would be a good idea to
include the comment section of that file in the manpage of apt.conf for
I've been asked how to do periodic updates and wasn't able to point
someone to the manpage.
