I installed 1.6.13 and could verify that the regression wrt --help is
fixed. unattended-upgrades still logged a lot of errors because for some
reason gettext returned utf8 despite being on non-UTF-8 locale, but
that's all from the APT side.

Unattended-upgrades does not print to stdout by default thus it can
operate properly in the environments triggering the bug, but
apt.systemd.daily executes u-u --help that may crash.
To avoid the crash apt could set LC_ALL=C.UTF8 when running unattended-
upgrades --help as proposed in the MR
