So, do I just issue sudo aptitude full-upgrade sudo aptitude full-upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade do the same thing, basically. The attempt to reslove dependency issues, removing files if needed. They just do it slightly differently. apt-get update and aptitude update are identical, they tell you what new versions are available. The safe-upgrade and upgrade options will never remove any packages at all. and not bother with the sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade method ? You have to do an update first to get the list of newer packages, either with apt-get or aptitude. sudo aptitude full-upgrade just happens to solve a problem that sudo apt-get dist-upgrade doesn’t in this case. Hey, it's only one command, I might even get to remember that one ;-) Thanks, Phill.

Hi puzzled @ phill I use the commands that you gave me sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and they were still held back. Odd that it worked for you, and didn't for me. Unless it is one of the subtle differences between apt-get and aptitude. Should I be using aptitude ? Aptitude has a different algorithm for for solving dependencies. -- Steve Yorvyk ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
