This change adds the option `flatpak.use_sudo` that allows to update
the system-wide installation with sudo. When set to `true` the
system-wide installation will be updated with sudo. If set to `false`
(default) the update will be run as regular user.
This solves the problem where running `flatpak update` on a remote
system fails if run as regular user.
Fixes#737.
This change adds an option, firmware.upgrade, that if set to `false`
only checks for and displays available firmware updates. If set to `true`
(default) the user is offered to run the firmware upgrade.
This commit makes it possible to *not* to use `rpm-ostree` even on
systems where it is detected.
This commit is fully backwards compatible with previous releases, and
without changing the config file all previous behaviors are the exact
same.
This commit adds the `rpm_ostree` field in the `[linux]` table of the
configuration, and defaults to `true`. This means Topgrade will first
check if `/usr/bin/rpm-ostree` exists, and only if so then check if the
user does not want to use `rpm-ostree` via the configuration. If the
user *does not* want to use `rpm-ostree`, then normal operation
continues checking for DNF or YUM.
This makes it possible for people where `rpm-ostree` is installed, but
where the system is not an `ostree` based distribtuion. This happens
when people are using things like `osbuild-composer` to build images,
or Cockpit with the Compose feature enabled (which uses
`osbuild-composer` internally).
An alternative to this commit would be to make the config field a
negative such as `no_rpm_ostree`, however that goes against the norm in
other fields.
Closes#710
Despite the fact that Topgrade explicitly tries to run the Windows Powershell, gsudo has an odd behaviour which causes it to detect whether it's being run from Powershell for Cmd.
If run from Powershell, It will launch the current powershell with the given command. If the current shell is Powershell, it will try to run the command with it.
However, Get-WmiObject doesn't exist on Powershell core.
