1 ... Project Description | ||
========================= | ||
|
||
This is a simple script to reduce repetitive typing of some apt-get maintenance | ||
commands. | ||
It reduces the daily maintenance commands to one command - this script. | ||
|
||
--------------------- | ||
The script sequentially invokes:- | ||
apt-get upgrade | ||
apt-get autoclean | ||
apt-get check | ||
apt-get autoremove | ||
|
||
2 ... Installation | ||
================== | ||
For the 'apt-get upgrade' command to have an up to date impact, agmaint should | ||
be run soon after an 'apt-get update' has been performed. | ||
|
||
1 ... Extract the tarball (.tar.gz file) preserving the directory structure. | ||
agmaint must be run with root privileges. | ||
|
||
2 ... cd to the directory created. | ||
|
||
2 ... As root or sudo, type './configure' | ||
------------------------------------------------- | ||
2 ... AutoTools (configure and make) Installation | ||
================================================= | ||
|
||
3 ... As root or sudo, type 'make install clean' | ||
1 ... Download the tarball (the .tar.gz file) from:- | ||
https://github.com/m-grant-prg/agmaint/releases | ||
|
||
(Quote marks are for textual clarity only). | ||
