Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
RFP
* Package name : upshutzz
Version : 1.0.0
Upstream Author : AdoraDeal LLC
* URL : https://www.adoradeal.com/upshutzz.html
* License : (GPL V3.0)
Programming Lang: (bash)
Description : upshutzz is an "on-demand", unassisted system update
program. It will check for and fix any software packages "errors" and broken
dependencies, then it will update the package lists from the repositories
(apt-get update), then it will run a safe update (apt-get upgrade), then it
will check for and update (if installed) the flash player, and after it
finishes running it will shutdown the computer. The upshutzz program should
be used when you are ready to shutdown the computer for the day, just launch
it and leave the computer doing its thing - the easiest way to update, ever!
depends on: zenity
Notes from Jamil Said (AdoraDeal LLC): we use this program internally and
also install it in all AdoraDeal computers. It has been extensively tested
and we know of no bug present. This program was designed to exit graciously
in case something goes wrong, thus it is very unlikely that an error will
crash anything. We designed this package because we needed the capability
and there was nothing similar available on Debian, at least not for LXDE. We
will maintain the code in our website and will be glad to submit to you when
a change happens; we do not want to be involved with the packaging and
maintaining on Debian. if anyone finds a bug, I will be glad to hear about
and fix it as needed.
