Agent 1.21.0. The hourly update check now covers the package managers beyond apt and dnf (#5803 "The agent's update check reads pacman, zypper and yum"): - yum: `yum -C check-update`, `updateinfo list security`, `needs-restarting -r`, as dnf. - zypper: `--no-refresh list-updates` (`--dup` on Tumbleweed), needed security patches from `list-patches --category security`, and `zypper needs-rebooting`. - pacman: `checkupdates` from pacman-contrib, which install-deps.sh now installs. pacman has no security notion; a reboot is required once the running kernel's /usr/lib/modules/<release> is gone. The checks sit in one UPDATE_CHECKS table, and a failure names its manager. The root helper's update runs on the same hosts (#5804 "The scheduled update runs on pacman, zypper and yum hosts"): yum upgrade, zypper refresh + update (dup on Tumbleweed, with 102/103 counted as success), pacman -Syu. Each step carries a label so a failure says which one, and the reboot check reads zypper and the pacman kernel too. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

### What the host has waiting (1.16.0, #5765)
|
||||
|
||||
Once an hour, and when the agent starts, a background thread asks the package manager what it would upgrade, so a slow apt never holds up a sample. On apt hosts it uses `/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check` (pending;security), or `apt list --upgradable` when that's missing. On dnf hosts it uses `dnf -C check-update`, `dnf -C updateinfo list --security`, and `needs-restarting -r` for whether to reboot. None of this needs root or the network: the commands read lists the system's own timers already fetched. Each command has 120 s. The last answer rides every sample as `updates`. Every sample also reads Debian's `/var/run/reboot-required` (and `.pkgs`) as `reboot`. Steward records `updates_pending`, `updates_security` and `reboot_required` (1/0) for rules, and keeps the newest on the registration. The host page's Agent card leads with "Reboot required since …", then "N updates waiting (M security)" or "Up to date", with when the check ran. `state["updates_due"] = True` asks for a check on the next sample; a maintenance job uses it once it has updated the host.

On apt hosts it uses `/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check` (pending;security), or `apt list --upgradable` when that's missing. On dnf hosts it uses `dnf -C check-update`, `dnf -C updateinfo list --security`, and `needs-restarting -r` for whether to reboot; yum hosts the same through `yum -C` (1.21.0, #5803). On zypper hosts it uses `zypper --no-refresh list-updates` (`--dup` on Tumbleweed, which upgrades by distribution), `list-patches --category security` for the needed security patches (Tumbleweed has none to list), and `zypper needs-rebooting`. On pacman hosts it uses `checkupdates` from pacman-contrib, which install-deps.sh installs; pacman says nothing of security, and a reboot is required once the running kernel's `/usr/lib/modules/<release>` is gone, i.e. the kernel was upgraded under it. None of this needs root, and apart from `checkupdates` none of it needs the network: the commands read lists the system's own timers already fetched. `checkupdates` syncs a copy of the package lists into its own temporary directory, so it reaches the host's mirrors once an hour but never touches pacman's real database. Each command has 120 s. The last answer rides every sample as `updates`. Every sample also reads Debian's `/var/run/reboot-required` (and `.pkgs`) as `reboot`. Steward records `updates_pending`, `updates_security` and `reboot_required` (1/0) for rules, and keeps the newest on the registration.
