Public bug reported: I installed Ubuntu server 16.04.1 LTS. I used the ISO downloaded on the official website. During the installation I chose the default options everywhere except username and password. I chose the option "No automatic updates" when prompted. I immediately turned the machine off and I did not turn it on for a few days. When I powered it on again I immediately tried to install packages with apt-get. The following error message appeared.
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? "ps -aux" revealed that an unattended-upgrade process was running. Expected behaviour: unattended-upgrade should not run when "No automatic updates" are selected during the installation. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1630107 Title: Unattended upgrades are enabled even if disabled during the installer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1630107/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
