I discovered this bug while trying to troubleshoot an issue why
unattended-upgrades wasn't installing packages on a lucid system.

Running 'unattended-upgrade --debug --dry-run` was showing the packages
being added to the blacklist.  I eventually discovered having

"APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated 1;" set in a configuration under
/etc/apt.conf.d was causing, for some reason, the packages to not be
trusted even thought they were coming from the authenticated
"security.ubuntu.com lucid-security" repo.  This is potentially another
bug I need to file since I'm unsure why that option should cause
packages to not be trusted from trusted repos but I haven't dug into
where the issue may be yet, possibly libapt?
