Public bug reported:

Since the following linux-cloud-tools-common package versions :

Xenial : 4.4.0-135.161
Bionic : 4.15.0-34.37

the Systemd service unit file for hv-kvp-daemon has been modified with new 
dependencies that make the package unable to be upgraded with 
unattended-upgrades on shutdown mode.
Unattended-upgrades hangs with the linux-cloud-tools-common package during 
"Preparing to unpack". The server restarts after the unattended-upgrades 
service timeout expires.

- Package state after reboot :

iFR linux-cloud-tools-common              4.15.0-34.37
all          Linux kernel version specific cloud tools for version
4.15.0

- Unattended-upgrades dpkg logs :

Log started: 2018-10-05  17:59:04
(Reading database ... 52043 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../linux-cloud-tools-common_4.15.0-36.39_all.deb ...
Log ended: 2018-10-05  18:00:54

- Impact :

The current impact is very important as all security updates are blocked
until you manually fix each server with :

dpkg --configure -a
apt install --only-upgrade linux-cloud-tools-common

- Workaround/Fix :

As a simple straightforward fix, replacing :

Before=shutdown.target cloud-init-local.service walinuxagent.service

with :

Before=shutdown.target walinuxagent.service

makes the package upgradable during shutdown.
