I just ran into this on my KDE Neon system when I noticed this morning
that a full upgrade of the neon packages was running that I hadn't
triggered myself.
>From what I can tell, adding "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}" to
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades has the effect of enabling
unattended updates for any changes to the main release archive (xenial,
in this case).
In the context of a released distro like xenial or yakkety, this works
because there are few if any changes to the main archive. But in the
case of Zesty, which is presumably under heavy development, changes
*are* being made to the main archive, so those updates are being
applied.
So I don't think unattended-upgrades is confused - it's doing exactly
what the configuration tells it to do: install updates either from the
main repository or -security. This doesn't happen in xenial or yakkety
simply because there are no updates in the main repo to apply.
That's my guess, anyway, based on my quick crash-course in unattended-
upgrades. :-)
