Bug Description
Each time unattended-upgrades is run on my system, the following python exception occurs:
# unattended-upgrades
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/
main(options)
File "/usr/bin/
if dpkg_conffile_
File "/usr/bin/
for option in map(string.strip, options):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'strip'
I'm flagging this as a security issue because it may prevent security upgrades from being installed.
