09:20 rbasak: I htink we can drop this dependency, we just need to make sure that the GUI does not offer to set "auto-install-security- updates" We agreed that dropping the dependency should be fine once the GUI is checked/fixed, and then we can seed (recommend) unattended-upgrades from seeds as needed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831487 Title: Dependency on package unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu Server Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in software-properties source package in Xenial: Triaged Bug description: The package, which includes the always-useful add-apt-repository, depends on package unattended-upgrades.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 831487] Re: Dependency on package unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu Server
Now that unattended-upgrades defaults to installing security updates in Xenial, I think this needs more attention. In mitigation, one can disable unattended-upgrades without removing the package (dpkg- reconfigure may work, but certainly hitting the files in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d will) but I understand that one can get more confidence by just purging a package that provides unwanted functionality. Unless there's a good reason that unattended-upgrades must be a dependency. Can it be a Recommends instead, or perhaps be seeded as a Recommends directly? ** Tags added: rls-x-incoming ** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu) Milestone: None => ubuntu-16.04 ** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831487 Title: Dependency on package unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu Server Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The package, which includes the always-useful add-apt-repository, depends on package unattended-upgrades.

The same problem exists on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty). In this case, add- apt-repository is in package software-properties-common, which depends on python3-software-properties, which depends (needlessly) on unattended-upgrades. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to software-properties in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/831487 Title: Dependency on package unattended-upgrades on Ubuntu Server Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The package, which includes the always-useful add-apt-repository, depends on package unattended-upgrades.
