Stable releases have frozen release suite (e.g. "xenial") and all package changes land in pocket suites - "xenial-updates", "xenial- security".
During development of a series, the pocket suites are not in use, and the release suite e.g. "artful" today is the one where all the changes land. Not upgrading people in devel suite, creates a limbo state where people are stuck on a snapshot of a devel release which is not supported at all. And get a massive dist-upgrade on release date, when it's no longer a dev-series. Also, how would one get the update to unmark oneself to no longer be a dev-series, if u-a is not doing anything? I think we need to revert this change, and mark it as won't fix. There is no security support for devel series, and pretending that we install security only updates on devel series is silly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1649709 Title: unatttended-upgrades 0.92ubuntu3 installs all updates but update- manager is set to only install security automatically on development release To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1649709/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
