These are tested on 11.10 with updates pending after running apt-get update.

After running apt-get upgrade and getting them all installed this is the output:

Using readme file method:

$sudo unattended-upgrade --dry-run --debug
Initial blacklisted packages:
Starting unattended upgrades script
Allowed origins are: ['o=Ubuntu,a=oneiric-security', 'o=origin=Google\\,,a=Inc.,suite=stable']
pkgs that look like they should be upgraded:
Fetched 0 B in 0s (0 B/s)
blacklist: []
InstCount=0 DelCount=0 BrokenCout=0
No packages found that can be upgraded unattended

Using "Google, Inc.:stable"; instead:
$sudo unattended-upgrade --dry-run --debug
Initial blacklisted packages:

Allowed origins are: ['o=Ubuntu,a=oneiric-security', 'o=Google, Inc.,a=stable']

No faults, still doesn't work as predicted.
