Richard,

You may know these methods below, but if you do not, then =
please read on...

If you had not removed unattended-upgrades:
dpkg-r=
econfigure unattended-upgrades  (select 'no')


Would you be using Gn=
ome? (understand this can be used)

Software
(select menu icon in top=
 right of 'Software' window)
Update Preferences
Automatic Update (set t=
o off)

or

gnome-software-3-14/
It=E2=80=99s now possible to disable the background =
update checks altogether through a hidden setting: =E2=80=98gsettings set o=
rg.gnome.software download-updates false=E2=80=99

$ gsettings set org.=
gnome.software download-updates false
