Unattended upgrades - config line for Palemoon

OK, so it's probably a bit of an edge case but I thought I'd drop it in for future reference.

I use unattended-upgrades - which is by default fully operational on installation of Q4 anyway.

As a Palemoon user one needs to ensure that it is upgraded as and when required.

Having added the Palemoon repos to ones sources there is the added task of sorting out the syntax for the unattended upgrades file.

I thought I'd save someone somewhere a bit of pain with this.

Edit (sudo)  /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades and add

 "o=obs://build.opensuse.org/home:stevenpusser/Debian_8.0,n=Debian_8.0,l=home:stevenpusser";

to the bottom of the custom entries section - watch out for the closing  }; on the line underneath!!!!

// ---here_to_add_custom_entries---
"o=q4os.org,n=jessie";
"o=q4os.org,n=q4os-1-0-cn";
"o=Debian,n=jessie";
"o=Debian,n=jessie-updates";
"o=Debian,n=jessie-proposed-updates";
"o=Debian,n=jessie,l=Debian-Security";
"o=Debian Backports,n=jessie-backports";
"o=Debian,a=oldstable";
"o=Debian,a=oldstable-updates";
"o=obs://build.opensuse.org/home:stevenpusser/Debian_8.0,n=Debian_8.0,l=home:stevenpusser";
};

Obviously this is for Orion - Scorpion is Debian 9 based so adjust accordingly.
