System Updates settings applet is absent

[Rudd-O]

For the past few builds I've made, the Updater app settings is absent and I cannot trigger an update check. Why is that happening?

The Updater package is only included if OFFICIAL_BUILD is set to true in the environment. You either need to export OFFICIAL_BUILD=true after pointing it at your own update server or you need to unconditionally add the Updater package.

That's done because people kept making unofficial builds with the Updater app pointed at our server so it was wasting a bunch of our resources and their data / battery life without them realizing it.

Look for OFFICIAL_BUILD in device/google/marlin or the relevant device repository.
