Public bug reported:

The script /usr/lib/apt/apt.systemd.daily produces log entries in the systemd 
journal like 
   unattended-upgrade -d (success)
or
   unattended-upgrade -d (error)

These seem to imply that "unattended-upgrade" was run with the command
line flag "-d", which according to the manpage means "debug".

But actually "unattended-upgrade" was run with the option "--download-
only".

I would be easier to understand and debug the u-a behavior if the log
entries would reflect this clearly.
