web based package management

damjan · 2013-07-28 18:28:22

Since I now have 4 computers at home with ArchLinux (my desktop, 2 laptops, a beagleboard, and potentially if I fix the R-Pi 5), I need a quick one stop place to see how updated the packages on all of them are.

So I'm wondering if there's some kind of a web app on which I can see the pending upgrades and approve them so they are installed. That's all the functionality I need.

Not aware of anything that does this... ssh + `pacman -Syu` is how I do it.

I use ssh too, but I only have 3 computers with arch of which only two run most of the time. In case your 4 or 5 computers run at the same time the clusterssh/css tool (from community/clusterssh) might be useful for you.

I guess you could have a script that runs /usr/bin/checkupdates and then emails you in the event that there are things to update...
