Installation

Requires: a Debian/Ubuntu version of linux and a Bash version ~4.4. bash-sys and bash-manageservices installed.

  1. Download a release or clone this repository.
  2. Use scripts/install.sh to automatically install the application in the /opt/oju/bash project folder.
  3. If needed, add PATH="$PATH:/opt/oju/bash/bin" to the .profile files.

Features

This tool is a wrapper to apt-get functions. With just one command, it allows you to:

  1. Re-synchronizes the package index files from their sources.
  2. Install the newest versions of all packages currently installed on the system.
  3. Updates the package cache and checks for broken dependencies.
  4. Removes packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for other packages and are now no longer needed.
  5. Clears out the local repository of retrieved package files.
  6. Finds packages and config that have no packages depending on them.
  7. Removes unneeded localizations.
  8. Updates database for mlocate.
  9. Restarts the stopped services.
Usage: updatesystem.sh [options]

  -l | --active-log     Log mode. Content outputs are logged in a file.

Test

As this tool is just a wrapper to the packaging tool functions, I didn't write any line of 'unit test' code. Sorry.
