It sits in the old sysadmin niche between package-manager front ends and fleet-management systems. ### Historique du projet The upstream README presents apt-dater as a management-server tool: copy example configuration into ~/.config/apt-dater, list managed hosts, and use SSH plus sudo on those hosts to run package updates. Its 1.0-era releases show the tool maturing around terminal multiplexers, host refresh behavior, localization, reproducible builds, and configuration backend changes. Version 1.0.2 switched configuration handling to libxml2 and included conversion support for older hosts.conf data. ### Historique d'adoption apt-dater's adoption is mostly in Debian-style administration circles. The supplied package metadata records Debian, Ubuntu, Alpine, Nix, and Homebrew packages, which matches a tool aimed at Debian-family update workflows but useful from non-Debian admin workstations too. The project is small compared with APT itself, but its presence in multiple package managers reflects a specific operator need: update many apt-managed machines without installing a heavier orchestration stack. ### Modes d'utilisation A typical setup creates ~/.config/apt-dater/apt-dater.conf, hosts.conf, and screenrc on the management machine, generates an SSH key such as ~/.ssh/apt-dater, installs the public key on managed hosts, and configures sudo for apt-get and related commands. The executable apt-dater coordinates the host view, while adsh acts as an SSH wrapper that can record sessions. The tool expects managed hosts to have SSH and sudo available. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent apt-dater is package-nerd software in the literal sense: it is a package-update console for people who administer many apt machines. It exposes the social layer around apt operations: host inventory, SSH identity, sudo policy, terminal multiplexing, and update status. It is also a reminder that not every package-management tool is a solver or repository system. Some are thin operational wrappers around existing package managers, and those wrappers matter when a fleet is still maintained by direct SSH. ### Chronologie - 2010s: apt-dater 0.9.x and 1.0.x releases refine cluster support, SSH/session handling, and terminal multiplexer behavior. - 2014: 1.0.0 pre-release series includes libconfig-backed configuration and ADP 7.0 support. - 2015: 1.0.2 switches the configuration engine to libxml2 and adds legacy hosts.conf conversion. - 2021: 1.0.4 release includes tmux and Debian build-environment maintenance fixes. ### Related projects - APT and apt-get are the package tools apt-dater drives on managed hosts. - needrestart appears in upstream sudo examples for detecting services or kernels that need restart after upgrades. - screen and tmux are related terminal multiplexer backends used by apt-dater workflows. ### Sources - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Notes de sécurité broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Risque Geiger:** blue / moyen - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
