Package: apt Version: 1.0.9.8.3 Hi,
apt-daily calls apt-get check to ensure that the cache database can be locked correctly (cf. LP#131719) and that "the cache is clean". By doing that check, however, apt-daily exits prematurely therefore preventing unattended-upgrades from "repairing" the dpkg database even if it is configured to do so. As suggested on IRC, perhaps apt-daily could detect such cases and call dpkg --configure -a (just like u-a does) if a given option is set? What do you think?
