Notify users of installed update?
When I installed Kinoite on a friends computer, they asked me how often they should restart it to install updates. I told them that about every week or so would do but I'm wondering if there's a way I could, in my own image, have a system that shows a single notification when a new update is installed and ready to reboot.

You can create a systemd unit file that overrides the one in your image that's updating via
rpm-ostree or bootc. You can use the command notify-send to create your own custom notification message
rpm-ostree - /usr/lib/systemd/system/rpm-ostreed-automatic.service
bootc - /usr/lib/systemd/system/bootc-fetch-apply-updates.serviceso files/systemd/system/rpm-ostreed-automatic.service?
I'm assuming it would be proper to just add an
&& to the end of the execI tend to put it in it's own directory in
files/ like files/rpm-ostree-service/rpm-ostreed-automatic.service and then have the files module do
You might want to throw everything in a bash call (i.e. /bin/bash -c 'command in here')
Unless systemd does support that, but I'm not entirely sureIs it better to do one over the other or is it personal preference?
Personal pref
Just keeps my tree clean
But since you brought up this question, I think I'm going to create this for my images lol
