Bug#863859: apt: runs unattended-upgrades in debug mode



Package: apt
Version: 1.4.2

Since a few days, my Stretch machine sends an additional daily e-mail
with cron output from unattended-upgrades.

It seems related to a change introduced in 1.4.2:

* Run unattended-upgrade -d in download part

...which dates from May 04 according to the changelog, but hit Stretch
only recently (on this machine apt was upgraded on May 27 according to
apt logs).

This is really annoying. Cron jobs are not supposed to output anything
unless there was an error. Now i receive three daily e-mails regarding
unattended upgrades: one from apt-listchanges (ok), one from
unattended-upgrades itself (ok, I enabled this in the config myself),
and one from anacron (not ok, if the upgrade ran without error, cron
shouldn't report anything).

It would be nice to revert this change before Stretch is released.

Regards,
