No, you don't need the whole Unattended installation, you just need a 
script that executes: auconfig.pl.

Yes, you're totally wrong.

auconfig.pl *configures* Automatic Updates, in the same way you can do 
it in Windows' control panel. Normally, you *configure* things only 
once, don't you?

And by the way, if you want to execute anything each time WPKG starts, 
use execute="always", otherwise, WPKG will consider it an error (package 
without any check conditions):
