@rbalint As I detailed, the problems cannot *all* be resolved by config. The biggest one, the first above, is still there. If you turn on a laptop when (1) an update is overdue and (2) there is not yet an internet connection, then the update will not run even if the connection becomes available 5 minutes later. This is an **absolutely typical** situation when on the go and connecting to new wifi networks.

Perhaps this is anacron's fault, or systemd's or something, I am not sure. What is certain is that, in the real world, in this common situation, unattended upgrades does not upgrade Ubuntu unattended.

I believe that is a significant problem.
