Which is a common situation now and I'd expect it to be handled. Cron jobs run at fixed times, but there are other timer mechanisms which compare the current time to when they were last run precisely to cope with this. > It would be nice if the snapd daemon checked for updates on boot-up > (or more frequently than four times a day), as the Discover Updater > does. What's the output of ‘snap refresh --time’? -- Cheers, Ralph. -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2020-05-05 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
