Cachy-Update suggestion.

[fabcard]

Hello.

Sometimes when I run cachy-update and it updates the system packages, GNOME shows a notification recommending a reboot and the cachy-update window also asks if I want to restart the system by typing “yes.”
However, other times after the updates, GNOME still shows the reboot recommendation, but cachy-update does not prompt for a reboot option, so I have to restart manually.

This isn’t a major issue, but it would be a nice quality-of-life improvement if this behavior could be made consistent.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion 🙂

Cachy-Update asks for a reboot after a kernel upgrade.
GNOME may have additional components (aside from the kernel) that would warrant a reboot but this is specific to GNOME. I don't think Cachy-Update can easily be aware of those, nor if it would be relevant (as Cachy-Update is designed as a DE agnostic solution). In my opinion, dealing with GNOME specific components that may require a reboot is out of the scope of Cachy-Update.
