Update Scripts
The Update Scripts in Linux Tools simplify keeping your Linux system up to date using safe, distro-appropriate commands.
- Automate system updates with safe defaults to avoid breaking dependencies.
- Standardize the update process across multiple Linux distributions.
- Reduce manual intervention while keeping detailed logs.
File: (WIP) Universal update script
- Planned support for Fedora/RHEL, Ubuntu/Debian, Arch, and openSUSE.
- Automatically detects your package manager and applies the correct update commands.
- Uses safe flags (e.g.,
--skip-broken,--best,--allowerasingon DNF systems) to prevent breakage. - Cleans up old package metadata when appropriate.
- Skips already updated packages for efficiency.
- Logs every run to
~/scripts/logs/.

- Currently under development — functionality may change.
- Goal is to make this script safe to run unattended or as a scheduled job.
