  unattended-upgrades:
-   Installed: 0.90

+   Candidate: 0.90ubuntu0.5
  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
+ 
+ 
+ * APT SRU *
+ [Impact]
+ Stopping apt-daily-upgrade.service terminates dpkg and friends by sending the 
signals to all processes in the cgroup, and will send KILL quickly after.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ Start apt-daily-upgrade.service and stop it while unattended-upgrades is 
running.
+ 
+ The upgrade should run to completion or a safe exit point as long as it
+ takes less than about 900s (which is the timeout for sending kill).
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Leftover processes might remain in the apt-daily-upgrade cgroup if the 
postinst scripts or some apt hooks do something funny.
+ 
+ Shutdown might take longer due to the 900 second timeout.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: Triaged => In Progress
