Description: Requires plasma-discover to be installed. Uses apt commands to update (KDE Neon / Kubuntu).
Clicking the "Update" button will instead open Konsole with the output of apt list --upgradeable, prompting you to run sudo apt full-upgrade.
1. After installing, right click the "triangle" in the system tray, then click "System Tray Settings". 2. Uncheck "Updates" 3. Check "Updates (Terminal)"
* Fix position of update status text (should of been above the button). * Show button to open /var/log/apt/history.log * Use the Oxygen-*.ogg instead of KDE-*.ogg sounds. With KDE Neon, plasma-desktop depends on oxygen-sounds, but doesn't depend on kde-runtime-data which ships the KDE-*.ogg sounds. * Fix Ubuntu 16.04 Security Notices link as the old link 404s.
99 excellent. I wish the transparency only affected the background and not the text. It would look so much nicer with a translucent BG but solid white text. Works flawlessly though - enjoying it a lot.
The script will prompt you to install libnotify-bin if it's not already installed. KDE Neon does not ship with it, but Kubuntu does.
The notify-send command is used to send a notification when updates have finished installing.
The scripts are in:
~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.github.zren.terminalupdate/contents/scripts/
If you want to modify them.
Two small issues:
1) Right after installation on my KDE neon there was no "Updates (Terminal)" in System Tray Settings, thought i could add to panel as separate widget. After logout and login though "Updates (Terminal)" appeared and one can follow 3-steps instruction above.
2) After update process i occurred an error message. There was unknown command in script: "notify-send". You need to manually install "libnotify-bin" package and everything works fine.

Commented on wrong widget, my bad! Would delete but there's no option to.
9 That's just what i wanted. Thank you.
"notify-send command not found" ?
