Public bug reported: Since the following linux-cloud-tools-common package versions :
Xenial : 4.4.0-135.161 Bionic : 4.15.0-34.37 the Systemd service unit file for hv-kvp-daemon has been modified with new dependencies that make the package unable to be upgraded with unattended-upgrades on shutdown mode. Unattended-upgrades hangs with the linux-cloud-tools-common package during "Preparing to unpack". The server restarts after the unattended-upgrades service timeout expires. - Package state after reboot : iFR linux-cloud-tools-common 4.15.0-34.37 all Linux kernel version specific cloud tools for version 4.15.0 - Unattended-upgrades dpkg logs : Log started: 2018-10-05 17:59:04 (Reading database ... 52043 files and directories currently installed.)
