I can't understand how unattended upgrades continues to work after Jessi is stable. In wheezy the config file has
"origin=Debian,archive=stable,label=Debian-Security"; "origin=Debian,archive=oldstable,label=Debian-Security"; I don't want to upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie immediately when Jessie is release. Sometime when version 8.1 or 8.2 comes might be a good time to upgrade. Meanwhile I would like the unattended-upgrades to keep Wheezy updated until I upgrade to Jessie. And I do not want unattended-upgrades to start installing packages from Jessie. I read about the changes made after Squeeze which indicate this setup does work in the above situation. But I do not understand how. Is there some mechanism that prevents updates from stable if the distro codename is not the same as the installed distro? What happens if there is wheezy-lts like there is now Squeeze Long Term Support version. Would unattended-upgrades work, if I remove oldstable-lines and replace every string stable with wheezy? And after upgrading to Jessie, replace wheezy with jessie? -- Tapio Lehtonen tapio.lehto...@iki.fi http://www.iki.fi/tapio.lehtonen
