After talking with some community members about archupgrade I sometimes still get the question: "what's the point of the project?"

We should list out the top use-cases. For example:

  • Automatic Arch Linux upgrades with no user intervention.
  • Upgrade bare metal systems or even containers (ex., managed by distrobox or toolbox)
  • Address upgrade issues from archlinux.org in an opinionated way.
  • Fix GPG key issues.
  • Handle system upgrades even if there is a mismatched GLIBC version for Pacman.

Longer term, we will likely include targets (gaming desktop, gaming handheld, etc.). For those use-cases:

  • Transform Arch Linux into your desired flavor.
  • Automate building Arch Linux distributions.
  • Customize your Arch Linux installation via configuration files.
