===== APTus Upgrade Checker & Notifier =====

The tool checks (in shadow) packages to be upgraded and displays notification on desktop.

Installation:
   sudo apt update
   sudo apt install sparky-aptus-upgrade-checker

Then reboot to let it start working.

It doesn’t run if:
  • running live system
  • no active internet connection
  • ‘sparky-firstrun’ is installed

It runs ones per system boot, with 30 second of delay.
If runs and finds packages to be upgraded, it lets you start the default Sparky’s upgrade tool ([[aptus_upgrade|sparky-aptus-upgrade]]).

It uses Yad, so it’s desktop independent.

==== System Upgrade Scheduler ====

It lets you set an additional upgrade checker to be checking upgrades every 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours or ones per week, via the menu-> System-> System Upgrade Scheduler.

It also lets you disable/enable back the default upgrade checking every system boot.
