Public bug reported:

Currently the project tracks all valid md5sums of permutations of
50unattended-upgrades.conf in a single md5sum file that contains every
md5sum of every historic version of all unique distros:

 50unattended-upgrades.Debian
 50unattended-upgrades.Devuan
 50unattended-upgrades.Raspbian
 50unattended-upgrades.Ubuntu

Ultimately ucf for a given packaging release should only track the
applicable md5sums which are expected to be seen on that particular
distribution and release.

For example:
   On Ubuntu Bionic: valid md5sums should be limited to the md5sum of the most 
recent Ubuntu Xenial 50unattended-upgrades.conf and the md5sums of previous 
Ubuntu Bionic releases to allow Xenial->Bionic and Bionic->Bionic upgrades 
without prompt.
