[Bug 1073138] Re: Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins should be replaced by Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern

[Robert Euhus]

Hi all, especially Michael Vogt,

while I can understand that You don't want do change the config during a
release, I can not see any  reason why it is still not changed for *new
releases* of ubuntu. The bug report is 8 years old by now. There is no
advantage of keeping "Allowed-Origin", but many problems have been
pointed out. One more: i think it's impossible to configure "just
upgrade everything without asking".

So please change this config for the next ubuntu release!

Thanks and regards,
Robert

  Upgrade::Origins-Pattern

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  According to /usr/bin/unattended-upgrade, the Allowed-Origins variable
