Maybe unattented-upgrade is fine for you if you want only the security updates. But I want a full "apt-get dist-upgrade". So I don't use the stock unattended-upgrade of Wheezy. But unattended-upgrade in Jessie is fine, when using a "*" config. See /usr/share/doc/unattended-upgrade/README or something like that for the details. For Wheezy I use a backport what I've made myself. This is what I do: Wheezy: http://vandervlis.nl/files/unat7 Jessie: http://vandervlis.nl/files/unat8 What I would like is autmatic install but only after a few days. I am working on a script what does that. It's not well tested at the moment: http://vandervlis.nl/files/updateafter With regards, Paul van der Vlis. -- Paul van der Vlis Linux systeembeheer, Groningen http://www.vandervlis.nl/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
