You can use the Steam API to check the current version number, based on that you can do as you wish.

This will be my final option.

Is the -autoupdate option even working on linux on cs2? I tried and did search in forum and google, also different methods, but the server doesn't want to update itself automatically.. Any ideas? It's really annoying to update manually and even when you are not on pc.

Dug into this some more and came across a plugin:

Maybe you can use the plugin or try the suggestion

Important It is required for the server to have hibernation disabled: sv_hibernate_when_empty set to false.
