Check software update status at Terminal launch
Authored by: Mattias Hedman on Feb 14, '04 05:16:13AM

There is a problem doing this via the terminal. If a update requiers a interaction from the GUI it will seem like the process has stopped at the terminal you're sitting at.

One of these updates is Quicktime. I tried to update an Xserve from remote just to discover that I thought that the machine frooze. When it actually was waiting for me to push "Continue" on the server screen...

So keep this in mind when doing this.

It actually works when the GUI Software doesn't. That is good!
