[Bug 1795657] Re: /usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown:ProcessLookupError:/usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrade-shutdown at 170:signal_stop_unattended_upgrade

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package unattended-upgrades - 1.7

---------------
unattended-upgrades (1.7) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Nils Toedtmann ]
  * Clarify 'A reboot is required' warning, that the requirement might stem
    from a previous run

  [ Balint Reczey ]
  * Build depend on and run pycodestyle, the replacement of pep8
  * autopkgtest: Clean up after failed debootstrap to retry cleanly
  * Handle when unattended-upgrades stopped without
    unattended-upgrade-shutdown sending SIGTERM (LP: #1795657)
  * Don't crash on missing dpkg log file (LP: #1795692)
  * do_auto_remove() is successful unless a commit() operation fails
    (LP: #1795696)
  * Check only dowloaded .deb files for conffile prompts (LP: #1796100)
  * Recommend systemd-sysv as the first alternative of cron.
    Unattended-upgrades is started via systemd timers or by the .service file
    on the default Debian and Ubuntu installations without cron's involvement.
    Systems without systemd-sysv can still install unattended-upgrades and run
    it via cron.
  * Only suggest python3-gi and skip check for metered connection when it is
    missing (Closes: #909543)
  * Only suggest powermgmt-base amd skip checking power status when it is not
    present
  * Show message about missing optional dependencies only once
  * Add configuration file option to enable verbose and debug logging.
    Thanks to Paul Wise
  * Revert to running unattended-upgrades.service in multi-user.target
  * Trigger unattended-upgrade-shutdown actions with PrepareForShutdown()
    Performing upgrades in service's ExecStop did not work when the upgrades
    involved restarting services because systemd blocked other stop/start
    actions making maintainer scripts time out and be killed leaving a broken
    system behind.
    Running unattended-upgrades.service before shutdown.target as a oneshot
    service made it run after unmounting filesystems and scheduling services
    properly on shutdown is a complex problem and adding more services to the
    mix make it even more fragile.
    The solution of monitoring PrepareForShutdown() signal from DBus
    allows Unattended Upgrade to run _before_ the jobs related to shutdown are
    queued thus package upgrades can safely restart services without
    risking causing deadlocks or breaking part of the shutdown actions.
    Also ask running unattended-upgrades to stop when shutdown starts even in
    InstallOnShutdown mode and refactor most of unattended-upgrade-shutdown to
    UnattendedUpgradesShutdown class. (LP: #1778219)
  * Handle reverting to WantedBy=multi-user.target when upgrading from 1.5 or
    1.6
  * debian/postinst: Redirect stdout from systemctl and deb-systemd-invoke to
    stderr and skip running systemctl start unattended-upgrades.service when
    unattended-upgrades is already running to avoid deadlock.
  * Increase logind's InhibitDelayMaxSec to 30s.
    This allows more time for unattended-upgrades to shut down gracefully
    or even install a few packages in InstallOnShutdown mode, but is still a
    big step back from the 30 minutes allowed for InstallOnShutdown previously.
    Users enabling InstallOnShutdown node are advised to increase
    InhibitDelayMaxSec even further, possibly to 30 minutes.

  [ Brian Murray ]
  * unattended-upgrades: Do not automatically upgrade the development release
    of Ubuntu unless Unattended-Upgrade::DevRelease is true. (LP: #1649709)

  [ Julian Andres Klode ]
  * Do not run on development releases until 21 days before release.
    This works for Ubuntu, and is only enabled there. Also explicitly
    log those messages to syslog, so a user can easily find them and
    then dig for more information in the u-u log.
