[Brian Murray]

Hello ITEAS, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unattended-upgrades into xenial-proposed. The package will
build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/unattended-upgrades/1.1ubuntu1.18.04.7~16.04.0 in a few hours, and then
in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)

Title:
  Wrong/confuse text on shutdown at unattended-upgrades

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unattended-upgrades source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * The confusing text on shutdown is, well, can confuse users.
   * This fix itself is minor and would not warrant a backport but it is backported as part of fully backporting Bionic's u-u version to Xenial.

  [Test Case]

   * Check that the status text is less confusing than it was previously
  either by configuring unattended-upgrades to run at shutdown and
  waiting for the text to appear or check that the text is changed in
  unattended-upgrades-shutdown:

  $ grep -B1 please /usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown 
      msg = _("Unattended-upgrade in progress during shutdown, "
              "please don't turn off the computer")

    * The former way or the verification may not be easy since with the fix for LP: #1803137 the shutdown screen does not show up when u-u-shutdown starts running, see the bug for the details.
    * Also checking unatttended-upgrades-shutdown for the changed text does not ensure that the translation is ready, too.

  [Regression Potential]

   * The updated text should not cause major issues, but until it is
  translated to each language it is shown in English, possibly confusing
  users in a different way.

  [Original Bug Text]

  ProblemType: Bug
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04
  Package: unattended-upgrades-0.90ubuntu0.9
  Uname: 4.4.0-104-generic #127-Ubuntu SMP
  Architecture: amd64

  I've german systems, so when updates will be installed at shutdown
  this text will be displayed at the screen.

  German:
  "unattended upgrade läuft während des herunterfahrens weiter, es wird fünf Sekunden lange gewartet"

  English:
  "unattended upgrade runs during the shutdown, it waits for five seconds"

  This sentence make absolutly no sence for me. Maybe it is an translationproblem? Don't know text on the english ubuntuversion.
  The problem is that some customer turned of some computers, because the updates need more time then 5 seconds ;)

  A better message will that was Windows10 displays at shutdown ...don't
  turn off the computer, updates will be installed...

  Thanks and best Reagards
