Package: unattended-upgrades Version: 0.83.3.2+deb8u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Recently the samba packages in jessie had a problem with a file conflict and the unattended upgrade failed: >From the logs (sorry for the german): 2016-04-15 07:39:11,224 INFO Packages that will be upgraded: libsmbclient libwbclient0 python-samba samba samba-common samba-common-bin samba-dsdb-modules samba-libs 2016-04-15 07:39:11,227 INFO Dpkg-Protokoll wird nach »/var/log/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades-dpkg.log« geschrieben 2016-04-15 07:40:19,320 ERROR Installation der Upgrades fehlgeschlagen! 2016-04-15 07:40:19,323 ERROR Fehlermeldung: »installArchives() failed« 2016-04-15 07:40:19,325 ERROR Dpkg gab einen Fehler zurück.
