Pop!_OS Maintenance Script

Bash script to perform full system maintenance on Pop!_OS, including:

• Repair of broken or missing packages
• APT clean/update/full-upgrade (as recommended by System76)
• Flatpak update and cleanup
• Snap refresh
• Optional installation or upgrade of the recovery partition

---

How to Install?

1. Clone or download:
   curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KristupasJon/Pop_OS-maintenance-script/main/pop-os-maintain.sh
   
2. Run:
   ./pop-os-maintain.sh
   
3. (Optional) Add script to PATH to run from anywhere:
   git clone https://github.com/KristupasJon/Pop_OS-maintenance-script
   Run:
   ./install.sh
   Usage:
   pop-os-maintain.sh

NOTE

Don't run the script as sudo pop-os-maintain.sh. If you do, flatpak will run as sudo and there may be file permission issues. By design always run flatpak without sudo.
