I had a message on irc that you wanted help on cronapt. As this might be of help to
others, probably easier if I put it on the web
aptitude install cronapt
Once installed then edit
- /etc/cron-apt/config
This is largely self explanatory, you need to remove the hash marks '#' from the
beginning of the appropriate lines. I would suggest using aptitude to install the
updates rather than apt-get.
- /etc/cron-apt/action.d/3-download
Please read the man file for apt-get command. The debian installation option is
dist-upgrade -d -y -o
the -d option forces download only. if removed then then cron-apt will install
the files and depending on the options in the config file will email you what has
happened
I should be on my computer most of today: contact me on irc if you need any more info
