Why is nobody suggesting the obvious solution? If you don't want automatic updates during certain periods, just disable auto-updating before said period, and re-enable after. This way, nobody maintaining packages needs to worry about what may or may not be a holiday for any particular client. Surely this can be easily scripted so all auto-updating machines cease updating for the intended period (weekend, holiday, vacation, etc.) Worst case: admin needs to run a "stop-updating" script before leaving, and executes a "resume-updating" script when returning. -- Alan M.
