[Touch-packages] [Bug 1267059] Re: "Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies" does not work
Could someone with the permissions to do so *please* "Nominate this for series" - tagging it as also applying to 12.04? - as per my comment #45. I would, but appear not to have sufficient permission. (Oddly the "Nominate this for series" option only shows while I'm logged out). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unattended-upgrades in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267059 Title: "Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies" does not work Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in unattended-upgrades source package in Trusty: Fix Released Bug description: I have a system that runs unattended-upgrades just fine.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1267059] Re: "Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies" does not work
Just chipping in to say that it's very frustrating to see this marked with a status of "Fix released". Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what that implies, but: - all my servers running 14.04 LTS don't have the fix yet - and apparently won't get it unless I take action - if I'm reading the above comments right, I have to add trusty-backports to get it (and it may not even *be* in there yet) Very unsatisfactory and unclear. I'm advising that for all our servers with this issue that we add the simple "...running apt-get -y auto remove on a cron job..." fix suggested above by Travis. That may be a hack, but seem to me to be safer that enabling backports on production servers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unattended-upgrades in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1267059 Title: "Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies" does not work Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I have a system that runs unattended-upgrades just fine.
