Executing a script after apt-get upgrade

[Axio]

Hi,

I would like to execute a script automatically after each apt-get upgrade. Is there an easy way to do that?

Try doing an apt-get upgrade through a script and call your script other script from current one .

[baumanno]

#!/bin/bash

# This runs update and upgrade
sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade

# Change into the directory of your script
cd ~/scripts

# And run it
./my_script.sh

# Or run some other command
dpkg --get-selections | grep firefox


Then, providing this script is called "after-update.sh", run


chmod +x after-update.sh
./after-update.sh

Cheers

sudo apt-get upgrade ; ./<your script >
