[Bug 1687129] Re: Needs to allow updates from the ESM archive

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre]

** Description changed:

- [SRU Justification]
- When the dust has settled on the ESM archive Release file format[1], unattended-upgrades needs to be tweaked to match.
+ [Impact]
+ ESM users relying on unattended upgrades.
+ 
+ [Test cases]
+ This requires a system installed with Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu Advantage credentials.
+ 
+ 1) install ubuntu-advantage-tools and unattended upgrades
+ 2) run 'sudo ubuntu-advantage enable-esm'; supply credentials for Ubuntu Advantage
+ 3) run 'sudo apt-get update'
+ 4) fake up the contents of /var/lib/apt/lists/esm.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_binary-amd64_Packages to list a newer version of unattended-upgrades
+ 5) run 'sudo unattended-upgrades --debug --apt-debug'
+ 
+ [Regression potential]

- 
- Since the ESM archive contains packages updated by the Ubuntu Security
- team, we should ensure the behavior of unattended-upgrades applies the
- same default policy to both.
- 
- [Test case]
- 1. run 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-advantage-tools unattended-upgrades'
- 2. run 'sudo ubuntu-advantage enable-esm <creds>' with your private creds enable the ESM archive
- 3. run 'sudo apt-get update'
- 4. create a faked-up entry in /var/lib/apt/lists/esm.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_precise_main_binary-amd64_Packages for the unattended-upgrades package with a higher version number
- 5. ??
