I have xenial install in Virtualbox with Host Jessie.

Since a few weeks unattended-upgrade is not longer working. As workaround I update over a little "Script".

apt-config dump | egrep -i unatt
APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1";
Unattended-Upgrade "";
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins "";
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}";
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-security";
Unattended-Upgrade::Allowed-Origins:: "${distro_id}:${distro_codename}-updates";
Unattended-Upgrade::Mail "root";

Status from apt-daily 

systemctl -a  | awk '{print $1}' | egrep '^apt' | xargs systemctl status

Mai 08 12:48:51 beelzemon systemd[1]: Started Daily apt activities

apt-daily is running since 12:48 today. 

uptime
 13:48:23 up  1:00,  2 users,  load average: 0,02, 0,08, 0,08` show i started my Virtualbox at 13:48. `date

But xenial is running ~45min. the same time discrepancy I have on my Host.

Is there a relation to my problem with unattended-upgrades? So I can search in this direction?

I can not post LANG=C unattended-upgrade -d -v --apt-debug I get python-errors and the relevant output is in German.

For sure:

timedatectl status

Edit found Bug-Report

I found my Error in 50unattended-upgrades

I tried to resolve why unattended-upgrades not run in the 1. Place. The problem is that apt-daily.service runs before I have Network-Access. Something wrong with apt-daily.timer.

In another Forum we found a workaround, with some who had the same problem in yakkety. sudo systemctl edit apt-daily.timer Content

[Unit] After=network-online.target Wants=network-online.target This creates an override under /etc/systemd/system/apt-daily.timer.d/override.conf Today I get a mail from unattended-upgrades. :D
