upgrades_0.93.1ubuntu8-to-0.96ubuntu1.patch appears to be a reversed
patch, and doesn't have a changelog entry for 0.96ubuntu1.
Which parts of this change is it that you believe violate feature freeze
and require an FFe? (Bugfixes do not require an FFe.)
If an FFe is required for the merge, why do a merge rather than cherry-
picking of the specific bugfix changes?
>From NEWS.Debian, I understand that a key change is to turn on the
minimal steps handling by default. What is the impact of this change on
the time it takes to do a typical update? Are we in any way increasing
the risk of an unclean shutdown due to a laptop running out of battery
during the upgrade, where this wouldn't have happened if we weren't
doing minimal steps?
debian/postinst changes the minimum version at which installinit upgrade
handling is applied, and will be reapplied to systems which have the
existing artful package installed. Could this be a problem? E.g., does
this forcibly override the user's preference on upgrade if they have
disabled the service in systemd?

Title:
Please merge unattended-upgrades 0.96 (main) from Debian unstable
(main)
Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I'm also asking for a Feature Freeze Exception following the rules for
new upstream version per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess.
[Reason]
Unattended-upgrades is planned to be enabled by default but the versions
present in Ubuntu can break the system by not protecting the upgrade process
from termination during shutdown (see LP: #1690980).
The newer version in Debian fixes the shutdown-related issue and contains
several additional reliability and debuggability fixes.
[Logs]
They are attached to this bug.
[Testing]
The autopkgtest log is attached and I also tested the version in Debian
several times while preparing the fixes for various bugs.
Note that the package in the PPA does not close this bug from the
changelog while the patches attaches do.
