N：忽略目录“/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/”中的文件“50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist”，因为它的文件扩展名无效

Question

昨天我升级了发行版，今天当我apt-get用来安装任何东西或更新时，我收到一个错误：

N: Ignoring file '50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension

据我所知，当一些新配置/设置与旧配置/设置混合时会发生此错误。所以我试图通过移动到文件夹来调试它ls -l /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/

看起来文件50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist存在。现在我的问题是如果我使用rm 50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist它会不会导致任何死亡？我有点害怕在这里使用 rm，因为扩展名为ucf-dist. 我在互联网和公共论坛上进行了研究，人们都在写关于使用gconf-cleaner，但还没有尝试过！

更新 1：正如评论中所建议的，我将输出 cat 50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist

// Unattended-Upgrade::Origins-Pattern controls which packages are
// upgraded.
//
// Lines below have the format format is "keyword=value,...".  A
// package will be upgraded only if the values in its metadata match
// all the supplied keywords in a line.  (In other words, omitted
// keywords are wild cards.) The keywords originate from the Release
// file, but several aliases are accepted.  The accepted keywords are:
//   a,archive,suite (eg, "stable")
//   c,component     (eg, "main", "crontrib", "non-free")
//   l,label         (eg, "Debian", "Debian-Security")
//   o,origin        (eg, "Debian", "Unofficial Multimedia Packages")
//   n,codename      (eg, "jessie", "jessie-updates")
//     site          (eg, "http.debian.net")
// The available values on the system are printed by the command
// "apt-cache policy", and can be debugged by running
// "unattended-upgrades -d" and looking at the log file.
//
// Within lines unattended-upgrades allows 2 macros whose values are
// derived from /etc/debian_version:
//   ${distro_id}            Installed origin.
//   ${distro_codename}      Installed codename (eg, "jessie")

        // Codename based matching:
        // This will follow the migration of a release through different
        // archives (e.g. from testing to stable and later oldstable).

//      "o=Debian,n=jessie-updates";
//      "o=Debian,n=jessie-proposed-updates";
//      "o=Debian,n=jessie,l=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";

Answer 1

请参阅有关.ucf-dist 文件的来源和用途的说明。这意味着您可以忽略该通知（这就是N:前缀所代表的含义）或删除所述文件。

在删除文件之前，请确保它不包含您可能仍然需要的任何包。将其与系统上当前处于活动状态的那个进行比较：

diff /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades.ucf-old /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades

如果您确定不再需要任何东西，则可以忽略此文件或将其删除。要删除文件运行：

sudo rm /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist

Answer 2

我从 14.04 升级到 16.04 时也出现这种情况，在升级安装过程中提示我选择原始（由我修改）50unattended-upgrades文件或包更新中包含的原始文件，我当然选择保留以前的。

安装后，未调用的文件50unattended-upgrades.ucf-dist出现在我的系统中，在我快速浏览一下旧版本的文件是否有任何重大变化后，很明显没有任何变化区别，所以我干脆删除了它。

最重要的是，如果您对当前版本的50unattended-upgrades感到满意，就可以摆脱它。
