Thank You for Your time and extended answer, Joe:
The general rule of thumb is to automatically update only workstations
and test servers, never production servers.
There is no way that automation can know whether it is wise to apply a
particular update immediately, to wait a while, or not do it at all in
cases of serious error. While errors (in Stable, at least) are
extremely rare, the cost to a production server could be enormous.
So, in case of workstations, we have no options besides these two:
either risk or manual update - these are the options?
have a look at
$ apt-cache search cron-apt
cron-apt - automatic update of packages using apt-get
it's working nicely in quite big environments
