systemd systemd-sysupdated.service 8 systemd-sysupdated.service systemd-sysupdated System Update Service systemd-sysupdated.service /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysupdated systemd-sysupdated is a system service that allows unprivileged clients to update the system. It works by scanning the system for updateable "targets" (i.e. portable services, sysexts, sysupdate components, etc.) and exposing them on the bus. Each target then has methods that translate directly into invocations of systemd-sysupdate8. See org.freedesktop.sysupdate15 and org.freedesktop.LogControl15 for a description of the D-Bus API. systemd1, systemd-sysupdate8 updatectl1
