  • atd has no functionality to trigger during shutdown, integrated in the systemd shutdown process, right? And dnf-automatic doesn't do anything at shutdown itself, either; I'd still need to somehow launch it then – that's the question I'm asking here! Commented Aug 9, 2024 at 10:50
  • Easy enough: it's a systemd-service, so you can create an override for it in /etc/systemd/system/dnf-automatic.service.d/override.conf to run it before shutdown. See unix.stackexchange.com/a/39604/364705 Commented Aug 11, 2024 at 9:45
  • no, I think that runs things now, and stops them after the shutdown target has been invoked (not yet run). But if you modify your answer to explain exactly what I should put where, I'd be happy to try. Commented Aug 11, 2024 at 12:11
