And while we are at that, can some of you native english guys jump in?
Is unapplied even correct here? Should't it be "removed". I mean, we do apply screenprotectors but we remove them later.
I am not a native but I have consulted a few and the verdict is unanimous across the board: you are right!

I assumed that "remove" would cause an ambiguity because it could be interpreted as removing the package with the patch. But all my native speaker consultants said independently that to them, there is no such ambiguity. You "apply" and "remove" the patch in Patchmanager and you "install" and "uninstall" the patch package.

Guys what you say about this ? :D

P.S. https://openrepos.net/content/schtur...tches-one-shot

idea is good indeed, but implementation is 2/10
need to utilize proper dbus calls and signals instead of ugly js + suid + sh + python stuff.

It not restart preloaded services.. When it finish unapply, it close only settings app and start it again on Patchmanager page, that you can check if all patches are unapplied...

I use it as in Utilities app, if you can create good app, all of us will be happy. For now it enough for me.
New version later today, it should show this notification only if update exist.

Propably stupid question, but is there also possibility to add thi to patchmanager? For example, when you swipe down, it would show this option also?

Yes, that's what I thought. Doesn't preloaded services need to be restarted to really unapply patches properly? Well, the ones that depend on services, of course.

nothing are need to be restarted if you just want to unapply patches to upgrade your system.

yep, like Coderus said, you don't need. Restarting services (lipstick), you just will see visual changes, fot system update you don't need it, just unapplying patches.
