Description
===========

Installs and configures `unattended-upgrades` Debian/Ubuntu package. This
package automatically installs system security upgrades and updates package
lists. It is recommended to have a MTA configured, as the logs are sent via an
email.

Attributes
==========

The default attributes hash looks like this:

node['unattended-upgrades'] = {
'update_package_lists' => true,
'update_packages' => true,
'origins' => [],
'blacklist' => [],
'email' => 'root',
'mail_only_on_error' => false,
'speed_limit' => nil
}

You should overwrite `origins` attribute when you don't want to use default
origins.

Blacklist is a list of names of packages that should not be updated.

Speed limit is the maximal download speed in KB. When you don't want a limit it
should be set to `nil`.
