Evidence from another machine I administer (same version of OS and
unattended-upgrades and that uses a similar PHP configuration) suggests
that the bug may only manifest if the previous state was 'un' rather
than 'rc':
$ dpkg -l libapache2-mod-php5|grep ^[a-z]
rc libapache2-mod-php5
Public bug reported:
It looks as though unattended upgrades' dependency resolution is a
little broken when there are multiple alternatives and when the
dependency is currently satisfied by a package other than the first
alternative.
In this case, package php5 was upgraded. php5 depends:
$ dpkg
