Ah, thank you very much. Just for curiosity... could I have got this
from somewhere myself? Seems like the cron-apt documentation is
somewhat... well... non-existing :)

Perhaps you could comment this in /etc/cron-apt/config, the current
comment there: "The directory where configuration per action is stored."
leads IMHO more to my assumption that config-changes in these files are
implicitely local.

Btw... should you look for a solution to store/restore/preserve some
environment state... there are different solutions ranging from opening
a new shell-context like ( ... ) to env > foo; unset all vars; . foo;


Thanks for your work & best regards
