What I expected to happen
=======
No error or warning messages during a software upgrade.
What happened instead
=======
When an updated version of unattended-upgrades is installed, the following error messages appear because /tmp is mounted noexec for security reasons (see the Securing Debian Manual, section 4.10 at https:/
Preconfiguring packages ...
Can't exec "/tmp/unattende
open2: exec of /tmp/unattended
Also, the following warning occurs later on:
Setting up unattended-upgrades (0.90ubuntu0.2) ...
update-rc.d: warning: start and stop actions are no longer supported; falling back to defaults
