Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.93.1+nmu1 Severity: serious Even if I have configured 'Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false";' in apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades:
// Do automatic removal of new unused dependencies after the upgrade // (equivalent to apt-get autoremove) Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "false"; it DOES remove packages (see below) as long as apt is configured as: APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant "false"; In my understanding this shouldn't be the case. Here is the output of unattended-upgrade: unattended-upgrade -d -v --dry-run Initial blacklisted packages: Initial whitelisted packages: Starting unattended upgrades script Allowed origins are:
