Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.99

With unattended-upgrades 0.99: All Debian packages are updated (not only
Debian-Security) including blocked packages
I don't wan't to upgrade Tellico 3.1-0.3, because the last version (3.1.1-0.1)
has an annoying bug (sorry i don't report it). So i have blocked this 3.1-0.3
version on Synaptic.
I hadn't this probleme before this 0.99 version (upgraded on the 02.10.2018)
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic (i never edited it) :
APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "0";
APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";
APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "1";
APT::Periodic::AutocleanInterval "0";
If i understand Debian Wiki correctly :
APT::Periodic::Download-Upgradeable-Packages "1" mean Do "apt-get upgrade
--download-only" so unattended-upgrades must only download upgradable packages,
and not to update all the system, and let alone update blocked packets.
This can cause a severe malfunction of my system if I dont want to update a
kernel or a library whose top version does not work

-- 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", "contrib", "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, "buster")
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).
// Software will be the latest available for the named release,
// but the Debian release itself will not be automatically upgraded.
