NAME

       unattended-upgrade - automatic installation of security (and other) upgrades

SYNOPSIS

       unattended-upgrade [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This program can download and install security upgrades automatically and unattended, taking care to only install packages from the config-
       ured APT source, and checking for dpkg prompts about configuration file changes. All output is logged to /var/log/unattended-upgrades.log.

       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

CONFIGURATION

       The  configuration  is done via the apt configuration mechanism. The default configuration file can be found at /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unat-
       tended-upgrades
