Landing the apt piece of this without the unattended-upgrades piece has regressed the around-the-clock distribution of unattended-upgrades downloads (which is enabled by default for security updates in 16.04).
The plan is to follow up with unattended-upgrades SRU today to get this all landed before 16.04.3 so that the point release images are in a coherent state. apt must also declare a versioned Breaks: against versions of unattended-upgrades that don't implement --download-only. Otherwise, the infrastructure consequences of a future apt update published to the security pocket without a matching unattended-upgrades update would be severe. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686470 Title: Apt updates that are uniformly spread across all timezones, with predictable application windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1686470/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
