I'm running LMS 7.9.0 on Debian 8.5 64 bit. I have the Settings ->
Advanced -> Software Updates -> Automatically Download Updates When
They're Available option set, and indeed LMS downloads new versions when
they become available, then shows me a nag message about "update
available." As far as I can tell, there is no way in the web UI to
actually apply this update, although I did find on clicking through
several links on the Software Updates page where it tells me the dpkg
command line to execute to apply the update.

Is there any way I can automatically apply these updates when they get
downloaded? I searched the forum and found a post that I thought made
reference to settings in the server.prefs file, but the only relevant
setting there is *autoDownloadUpdate: 1*, which I assume is exactly what
I specified on the web UI. Does anyone have a script which applies the
latest update I could run as a cron job, for example?

It isn't a great burden to do the command line update every time I see
the nag msg, and I know there's risk associated with doing an update.
But, given I'll manually do the update every time I see the nag message
anyway, I'm ok with the risk to save the hassle of the manual step.
