GUI Updates script

[anon222]

Thanks misko, a good quick fix there, What we need long term is a if-else statement that suppresses any errors

Here you go, pall.

Code:

#!/bin/bash

bold=`tput bold`
normal=`tput sgr0`

echo "${bold}**********************"
echo "Linux Lite 2.0 Updates"
echo "**********************${normal}"
echo ""
echo "Linux Lite will now search for updates for your computer."
echo "Once installed, your computer will be up to date."
echo "Simply follow the onscreen instructions."
echo ""
echo "Please enter your password to continue..."
if [ "$(pidof synaptic)" ]
then
    sudo killall -9 synaptic
else
    echo""
fi
if [ -z "$(pgrep gdebi-gtk)" ]
then
    echo ""
else
    killall -9 gdebi-gtk
fi
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
echo ""
echo "Updates complete."
echo "This window will now close."
sleep 5
