[Bug 1585771] Re: Automatic security upgrades are always enabled

[Ryan Harper]

Tested:

a37843379dd7061c2c1dc87ed215a284 *xenial-server-amd64.iso

And selected "No Automatic updates" when prompted.

After install there is no longer a /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades
file present.

ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades
cat: /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades: No such file or directory

ubuntu at ubuntu:~$ head -n 8 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades
// Automatically upgrade packages from these (origin:archive) pairs
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins {
	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-security";
//	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-updates";
//	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-proposed";
//	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-backports";
};

$ grep -nr "APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade.*1.*" /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/*
ubuntu at ubuntu:~$

  security upgrades.

  $ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades 
  APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1";
  APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";

  $ head -n 8 /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades 
  // Automatically upgrade packages from these (origin:archive) pairs
  Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins {
  	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-security";
  //	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-updates";
  //	"${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-proposed";
