Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.62.2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The current code for unattended-upgrades creates the default logdir
(/var/log/unattended-upgrades) regardless of whether the user has specified
a different LogDir.
(two additional sidenotes:
- why the disparity between config options? (APT::UnattendedUpgrades::LogDir
vs Unattended-Upgrade::Mail)
- the logdir is created on a --dry-run as well. That seems off)
