This script is the backend for the APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade option and designed to be run from cron (e.g. via
/etc/cron.daily/apt).
OPTIONS
unattended-upgrade accepts the following options:
-h, --help
help output
-d, --debug
extra debug output into /var/log/unattended-upgrades.log
--dry-run
Just simulate installing updates, do not actually do it
