5.3.2 Using apt-get
# apt-get update
# apt-get -t stable upgrade
# apt-get -t stable dist-upgrade
# apt-get -t testing upgrade
# apt-get -t testing dist-upgrade
# apt-get -t unstable upgrade
# apt-get -t unstable dist-upgrade
Once your system has reached Sarge it is advisable to use aptitude
instead of apt-get
. (aptitude
accepts many of the
options that apt-get
accepts, including those above.)
To upgrade and stay with current dselect
settings:
# apt-get dselect-upgrade
