Nothing really universal, as the programs that you normally use on a
linux system are developed and maintained independently of each other.
If you are interested in a particular program, look at its docs, find
out who is developing/maintaining it, and if there is a mailing list
or a web site (which may have such a mailing list). Subscribing to
such a mailing list you will likely get announcements regarding
availability of new versions, which is better than nothing.
Some Linux distributions, notably Red Hat, have automatic update
services for all the packages in their distro. If you are a Red Hat
user check out Red Hat Network and the related up2date. Other distros
may have similar services. I would not be surprised if a Debian user
is writing to you at this very moment how to do it with apt-get and
how that is the only true correct solution. That, btw, might just be
right, I just don't know about it. ;-)
