Feature Request: update old packages only #339

Hello!

During recent years I faced multiply system failures because of automatic updates. Some packages which got automatically updated had issues which prevent system to boot or upgrade (in kernel or systemd packages). Having option which allows update only old packages (updates pkg age) would solve those issues.

Can unattended-upgrades check how old update is and only update packages if they are older lets say than 30 days and ignore those updates which just got available?

You could mess upstream with aptly and cron job and let the leaf nodes untouched.
