Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.80~sid2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
unattended-upgrades no longer mails a log to root. Instead, root gets the
following error message:
/etc/cron.daily/apt:
Exception: could not convert string to float: amd64Traceback (most recent call
last):
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1042, in <module>
main(options)
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 995, in main
cache, pkgs_to_upgrade, options, logfile_dpkg)
File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 704, in do_install
return pkg_install_success
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'pkg_install_success' referenced before
assignment
This just started happening yesterday.
Judging from /var/log/apt/history.log though, upgrades are still getting pushed
through. I'm thinking this problem might be due to an upgrade in the python
packages, but I'm not sure where so I decided to report it in unattended-
upgrades since that's where I'm seeing the error.

-- Configuration Files:
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades changed:
// Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern controls which packages are
// upgraded.
//
// Lines below have the format format is "keyword=value,...". A
// package will be upgraded only if the values in its metadata match
// all the supplied keywords in a line. (In other words, omitted
// keywords are wild cards.) The keywords originate from the Release
// file, but several aliases are accepted. The accepted keywords are:
// a,archive,suite (eg, "stable")
// c,component (eg, "main", "crontrib", "non-free")
// l,label (eg, "Debian", "Debian-Security")
// o,origin (eg, "Debian", "Unofficial Multimedia Packages")
// n,codename (eg, "jessie", "jessie-updates")
// site (eg, "http.debian.net")
// The available values on the system are printed by the command
// "apt-cache policy", and can be debugged by running
// "unattended-upgrades -d" and looking at the log file.
//
// Within lines unattended-upgrades allows 2 macros whose values are
// derived from /etc/debian_version:
// ${distro_id} Installed origin.
// ${distro_codename} Installed codename (eg, "jessie")
Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
// Codename based matching:
// This will follow the migration of a release through different
// archives (e.g. from testing to stable and later oldstable).
// "o=Debian,n=jessie";
// "o=Debian,n=jessie-updates";
// "o=Debian,n=jessie-proposed-updates";
// "o=Debian,n=jessie,l=Debian-Security";
// Archive or Suite based matching:
// Note that this will silently match a different release after
// migration to the specified archive (e.g. testing becomes the
// new stable).
// "o=Debian,a=stable";
// "o=Debian,a=stable-updates";
// "o=Debian,a=proposed-updates";
// "origin=Debian,archive=stable,label=Debian-Security";

//Unattended-Upgrade::MinimalSteps "true";
// Install all unattended-upgrades when the machine is shuting down
// instead of doing it in the background while the machine is running
// This will (obviously) make shutdown slower
//Unattended-Upgrade::InstallOnShutdown "true";
// Send email to this address for problems or packages upgrades
// If empty or unset then no email is sent, make sure that you
// have a working mail setup on your system. A package that provides
// 'mailx' must be installed. E.g. "[email protected]"
Unattended-Upgrade::Mail "root";
// Set this value to "true" to get emails only on errors. Default
// is to always send a mail if Unattended-Upgrade::Mail is set
//Unattended-Upgrade::MailOnlyOnError "true";

// (equivalent to apt-get autoremove)
//Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false";
// Automatically reboot *WITHOUT CONFIRMATION* if a
// the file /var/run/reboot-required is found after the upgrade
//Unattended-Upgrade::Automatic-Reboot "false";
// Use apt bandwidth limit feature, this example limits the download
