jasi 🏳️⚧️ | No there sadly isn't, Debian/Ubuntu handle this by having certain packages create a reboot file in /var/run but there's no unified interface, especially since nixos doesn't install gnome-software by default which has the reboot indicator design. | 18:44:57 |
hexa | yeah, /run/reboot-required | 18:45:10 |

hexa | autoupgrade boot | 18:45:28 |
hexa | with slightly more attention to my mother than the extended family up until now | 18:45:58 |
hexa | she was on stable nixos releases, but I forgot to lift her up from 24.11 | 18:46:08 |
hexa | so now they're all running nixos unstable | 18:46:17 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | Maybe it would be helpful if the system.autoUpgrade module had a post-update hook option, then you can hook that into a notification or what not. | 18:50:36 |
jasi 🏳️⚧️ | It's x11 wm that uses gnome components but with metacity (the compositor before mutter), I just don't know if it's worth keeping under the gnome module since GNOME 50 will completely remove the x11 codepath | 18:54:35 |
Ramses 🇵🇸 | In reply to @normalcea:matrix.org Maybe it would be helpful if the system.autoUpgrade module had a post-update hook option, then you can hook that into a notification or what not. You can just trigger a systemd one-shot service | 23:29:58 |
