Description John Shand 2024-03-02 21:09:31 UTC
i have recently come across and annoyance with os-update.  no matter if there is an update or not, after each run of the systemd service, computer reboots.

this might have been a small oversight

What are your configuration options?

i am currently using the default settings.  however, i have elected to make os-update check updates every hour.  however, when it runs, i will reboot regardless if there is a need to or not

I doubt that. According to your description this would mean, your computer reboots every hour.
None of my server does reboot after every update. We had in the last days many new kernels and rebuilds, this do of course trigger a reboot. Could it be that this lead to the wrong impression to you?

Please provide the journalctl -u os-update output which shows that it triggers every time a reboot and that there was no kernel, glibc, openssl, dbus or similar update.
