Public bug reported:

Unattended-upgrades 2.1 triggers the following crash in python-apt:

  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 1706, in try_to_upgrade
    cache.mark_upgrade_adjusted(pkg, from_user=not pkg.is_auto_installed)
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 438, in mark_upgrade_adjusted
    self.call_adjusted(apt.package.Package.mark_upgrade, pkg, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/bin/unattended-upgrade", line 397, in call_adjusted
    self.clear()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/cache.py", line 700, in clear
    self._depcache.init()
apt_pkg.Error: E:The package intellij-idea-ultimate needs to be reinstalled, 
but I can't find an archive for it.

I think .clear() should not raise an error, but if it should u-u can
catch that.
