gnome 3.10.2 openSUSE 13.1 The program that regularly checks for software updates is called "Software Update" in Gnome. I would like to limit the time window to 1am - 6am when it checks for updates. Does anyone know what the application's actual name is? Is it possible to limit the time frame?
It's gpk-update-viewer, from the gnome-packagekit module. FYI: gnome-packagekit is in maintenance mode (expect bugfixes only) and all new work is being done on gnome-software, which is much nicer. Unfortunately I don't think it's possible to limit the time it checks for updates. Since human intervention is required to download and install the updates, I'm not really sure the benefit of running the check overnight anyway? (If it could install updates automatically, I would understand why you'd want to do it overnight.)
