Subject: unattended-upgrades: Needs a --download-only mode

Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2017 22:52:07 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: unattended-upgrades
Version: 0.93.1
Severity: important

In order to coordinate with the new split downloading and installing
in the systemd timer in apt 1.4.6, unattended-upgrades needs to gain
a --download-only flag (the flag needs precisely that name, that is
what apt is querying for).

Without the --download-only flag, downloads of new updates all happen
within a fairly short time window, potentially causing issues with
traffic load.

For more details, see https://bugs.debian.org/861357 and 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1686470

Draft of a patch attached, needs testing.
