[LUG] Cron-apt on Debian Squeeze

 

Upgraded from Lenny last week and ever since my cron-apt seems not to be
working. The odd thing is that I am downloading updates but not
installing them

I cannot see any reason why this should be, can someone point out where
I can check problems

Key details

- I use aptitude not apt-get
- Syslog 

Apr 29 04:48:35 newdebian cron-apt: CRON-APT RUN [/etc/cron-apt/config]: Wed Apr 29 
04:00:02 BST 2009

quiet=2
Apr 29 04:48:35 newdebian cron-apt: Reading package lists...

That is it. It is as if cron-apt is reading /etc/cron-apt/action.d/ 
        executing the commands in 0-update
        not executing 3-downloads

- var/log/cron-apt is empty
