This happened again. Can I tweak some config file to enable verbose mode for unattended-upgrades and see if it'll fail when run from cron tomorrow night?

Now given that ca-certificates is involved, I suspect this may be related to non-ASCII filenames (see bug 1554365), but unlike that bug, here the upgrade fails instead of succeeding, and the actual error is not shown anywhere.
