[Bug 1550741] Re: Upgrade failed - unauthenticated package (module-init-tools)

[Winfried PLappert]

Circumvention, copied from Bug #1550922:

Set up a config file in /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades.d/*.cfg.

According to http://askubuntu.com/questions/425355/error-authenticating-
some-packages-while-upgrade one needs to create a file /etc/update-
manager/release-upgrades.d/unauth.cfg with the contents:

[Distro]
AllowUnauthenticated=yes

Tested and works.
