Not exactly a push, but I have my servers "remind" me daily when there are updates available.
I have a script called 00pacman-update in my /etc/cron.daily
----< start clip >----
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/pacman -Sy --noprogressbar
/usr/bin/pacman -Qu
----< end clip >----
That way I get a daily reminder via email of what updates are available.
Looking at the pacman options again though I think I'm going to change the first pacman options,
from:
"-Sy --noprogressbar"
to
"-Syuw --noconfirm --noprogressbar" # sync and download, but don't do the actual update
I know that is not a push, but it does save you some time and you get reminded where there are waiting packages.
You could script a push via ssh.
Hi,
I maintain a few machines and a server in my office and I periodically
update them manually ( -Syu ).
Is there a way to push package updates to them ?
Any project out there which does this ?
Thanks.
