from precise (12.04):
# check if we can lock the cache and if the cache is clean
if which apt-get >/dev/null && ! eval apt-get check -f $XAPTOPT $XSTDERR ; then
debug_echo "error encountered in cron job with \"apt-get check\"."
exit 0
fi
I also verified that the implementation has not changed one level
further. As such I don't see any change here. Maybe something else
changed for you.

Title:
daily unattended upgrade does not recover from interrupted dpkg run
(regression)
Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
ever since the daily unattended upgrade is run via systemd timers it
does no longer recover from interrupted dpkg runs
in /usr/lib/apt/apt.systemd.daily, before the actual unattended-upgrade
script is called, there is a call to
apt-get check
which ends the daily update run with an error in this case. The log says
error encountered in cron job with "apt-get check".
Before the switch to systemd timers, when a dpkg run was interrupted
(requiring execution of dpkg --configure -a), the unattended upgrade
script would recover from this (unless Unattended-
Upgrade::AutoFixInterruptedDpkg was set to "false"). So this is a
regression.
