to swupdate
Hello,
My company uses the Suricatta general server along with a simple backend to distribute updates, for the backend to know which updates to distribute we currently send the contents of the /etc/sw-versions file in a header.
Since the header is set using a command line argument swupdate needs to be completly restarted (or rebooted) for a new versions to appear inside the header.
We currently do this with `systemctl restart swupdate` in the postinstall script.
Is there a way to update the header to include the recently installed versions without restarting swupdate?
