Observium is great, don't get me wrong, but its probably best to install updates to a sandbox environment before blindly updating a production observium install. Just my .02

Hey,
some svn command + little script to check if it is actual update + mail command ?
that's how I would do it… or is there something build-in into observium for that ?
I would use something like 'svn status --show-updates' in a cron job. You may have to pipe that to grep -v to filter out stuff you don't want, e.g. observium.log.
Actually, I just run 'svn up /opt/observium' from crontab once a week to auto-update, but that might be a little too trusting for some. ;)
