Some users (want to) forget about regularly upgrading Guix System. There should be an unattended upgrades service. Some requirements come to mind for its configuration:
1) Some users may want their unattended upgrades service to take care just of reconfiguring from a recent checkout and some may want it to take care of updating users’ ~/.config/guix/current and ~/guix-profile profiles. 2) Maybe there should be libnotify integration for unattended upgrades if the user uses a desktop environment. 3) Updates may fail if there is no internet connection. Some users may *not* want upgrades on metered internet connections. Some users may *not* want upgrades over untrusted connections. This report is a followup to Ludo’s proposal at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/36636> to add such a service and add it to %desktop-services, making it the default setting. Such a change in defaults could be a bad surprise for some users and should not go unnoticed, I think. Regards, Florian
