Managing Updates Across Multiple Arch Based Systems (lemm.ee)

submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Greetings everyone,

So I have been pondering on how to accomplish something;

I have multiple Arch based systems, and I want to try to manage updates on all of them so they are all on the same version. So I was wondering how anyone may go about doing this?

One thought was that I could host my own Arch repo, where I have a server that pre-builds all of the packages I want to be installed across my systems. However, each machine has different hardware, so I would have to build driver packages such as Nvidia related packages for one machine, etc.

How do you handle managing updates across multiple Arch machines?

Thank you!

I mean, I'm not going to reinstall a new OS on all of my machines.

I'm comfortable with Arch, and am looking to find a way to keep my current systems in parity.

I do appreciate the suggestions for sure!
