Bug Description

I am trying to write a script to automatically update my Ubuntu system with little user interaction, while honouring the "phased updates" feature that currently (and allegedly) only tool "Update Manager" supports.

So I need to find out which apt options, or whatever, I need to use. I went to this wiki page, which looks promising:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PhasedUpdates

On that page, there is a link to a blog post by Brian Murray with "complete details", which is what I need. Unfortunately, the link is broken.

It is not the first time I see an error on the Launchpad Wiki, and it is not entirely clear how to report such issues, so today I am trying with this general bug-reporting mechanism.

the statement isn't accurate anymore, it was added to apt in

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/2.1.16

The missing blog is unfortunate but the content should probably be moved to the wiki or discourse if it still exists and is useful, not really an update-manager or Ubuntu bug

Changed in update-manager (Ubuntu):
importance: Undecided → Low
