SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.

***

Fedora Silverblue/ Kionite is an rpm-ostree based distribution. It has automatic updates integrated into the file "/etc/rpm-ostreed.conf" using a simple change in the file.

Please add the ability to do this in Discover, to make it easier for end-users. Add:

sudo sed -i 's/none/stage/g' /etc/rpm-ostreed.conf  #set to install if set to none
sudo sed -i 's/check/stage/g' /etc/rpm-ostreed.conf #set to install if set to none

This could be a button under the KDE settings (where otherwise the "automatic updates" button is) or in Discover, under the Updates menu in the top bar.

We already have an automatic updates setting in System Settings > Software Update. Is it not working for you?
Comment 2 Timothée Ravier 2022-12-09 16:56:46 UTC
This is implemented directly in Discover (nothing to change in rpm-ostree configuration) for 5.27.
