With the fix for this bug I'm dropping the clearly obsolete question, but IMO adding different questions would confuse less experienced users.
I think power users who can cope with regressions caused by packages from sources coming from sources not allowed by unattended-upgrades by default should be able to change the u-u configuration file - or add new configuration files overriding default values. Optionally updating packages automatically from PPAs or unofficial sources would be indeed be a feature that could be made available in an easier way, but I think it would be better to track this potential improvement in a separate bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577215 Title: Origin pattern is unexpected on dpkg-reconfigure To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unattended-upgrades/+bug/1577215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
