Short description

updata is software for managing and running system updates using the system's package manager. In particular, it is used for

  • managing package repository configuration;
  • initiating system updates;
  • making sure a running update is performed completely even if multiple reboots are required;
  • making sure a running update is performed completely even if the system is powered off or crashes in the middle of updating,
  • making sure a failed update is either rolled back or the system is rebooted into recovery mode.
