Nah I dont restart unless its a massive update of tons of core packages

[-] Mihies@programming.dev 2 points 2 weeks ago

On fedora that is? Because "my" fedora want to install system stuff only during restart (if updated from app at least).

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 5 points 2 weeks ago

You can toggle that off in the menu if youre on KDE. I'm on nobara though not fedora so maybe its different.

Where exactly do I find that setting? But I fear it won't work with fedora.

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 4 points 2 weeks ago

Settings > software update > apply system updates . set it to immediately

[-] BradleyUffner@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

When I first started using Fedora I hesitated to turn this setting on because, to me, it sounds like it's going to install stuff automatically without asking. I feel like it's badly named and confusing. Now I suspect they named it poorly on purpose because they really want people to restart to install updates.

they did because live patching has a lot more that can go wrong so they made the name reflect that risk. ofc you should get to choose so the setting is there.

[-] unknown1234_5@kbin.earth 3 points 2 weeks ago

its in the software updates page, I think its behind a button at the top

[-] Mihies@programming.dev 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's where @Fizz@lemmy.nz suggested. Thanks both, I've set it to immediately and first update went without restart. Fingers crossed.
