Hi all,
Debian and Ubuntu have a package called unattended-upgrades.
We have yum-cron which does something similar.
One difference though is that unattended-upgrade drops a script in
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/unattended-upgrades, which does this:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -d /var/run ]; then
touch /var/run/reboot-required
fi
Using Ansible, I can quickly see which servers need a reboot due to a
kernel upgrade.
I think this would be nice to have in Fedora as well, the only
question is which package
should provide it.
We have /etc/kernel/postinst.d too, but this directory is currently unowned.
So if I'd wanted to add this to some package, which one should it be
and what should it depend on?
Alternatively, I could create a new package, let's call it 'reboot-required'.
Thoughts?
Kind regards,
Ruben Kerkhof
