Setup unattended-upgrades

Edit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades. Comment out the following lines.

Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern {
        // Codename based matching:
        // This will follow the migration of a release through different
        // archives (e.g. from testing to stable and later oldstable).
        // Software will be the latest available for the named release,
        // but the Debian release itself will not be automatically upgraded.
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-updates";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-proposed-updates";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename},label=Debian-Security";
        "origin=Debian,codename=${distro_codename}-security,label=Debian-Security";

        // Archive or Suite based matching:
        // Note that this will silently match a different release after
        // migration to the specified archive (e.g. testing becomes the
        // new stable).
//      "o=Debian,a=stable";
//      "o=Debian,a=stable-updates";
//      "o=Debian,a=proposed-updates";
        "o=Debian Backports,a=${distro_codename}-backports,l=Debian Backports";
};
Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies "true";

Issue the command below to enable automatic updates:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low unattended-upgrades

/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades should contain the following:

APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1";
APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";

Enable the systemd service:

sudo systemctl enable --now unattended-upgrades.service
