Hi Olaf,

have you found unattended-upgrades automatically installed on those
two boxen, or have you instead apt-get installed it afterwards?

If the bug you are referring to is thts one:

https://bugs.devuan.org//cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=78

it was closed because we forked the package and solved the issue (or
at least we thought so). We haven't had any other report of
misfunctioning unattended-upgrades since. I think it looked like a
regular bug, so at that time we must have concluded that no special
"burial ceremony" was in order :D

And please, if you believe at any time that a bug report is still
valid, and should have not been closed, just *reopen* it. There are
humans over here, humans who don't have access to all your machines
and cannot try all of the almost infinite number of combinations in
which a package can find itself :)
