There has been a long thread in the forum about why you should use the updated tool instead of updating locally. In brief, it's used to apply other things (e.g. configuration changes) besides raw updates. > >- Why is 'qubes updater' notified in the first place, if nothing needs >to be done? - OR - > > >- If something got done 'locally', why isn't at least a minimal >information about the performed activity returned? > > This inconsistency / uncertainty is confusing (at least to me ). Because the updater does more than just update, it is possible that there are things not applied. What's the situation here? What Qubes version are you on? Do you mean that dom0 is always marked a requiring updates in the updater tool? Is it still showing that updates are required? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
