For what it is worth it, dist-upgrade is used to upgrade your distribution

Update - refreshes your repository data.

Upgrade - upgrades your current distribution to the latest patches/versions.

When you update+upgrade from command line, the GUI is not updated until you
restart it or refresh it somehow. Some GUIs have some way to check for
updates. That is why it was up to date after you restarted it.

When I run lsb_release -a I get:

rsteff@ENU-1:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:    Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
Release:    18.04
Codename:    bionic
rsteff@ENU-1:~$

I don't recall restarting, so I just did that.

Still shows Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, which I expected.

Also running Software Updater still fails, then works.

Other projects are in front of digging deeper for now.

Thanks for your thoughts and help.
