In my experience updating LMS from 7.9.4 to 8.0.1 is indeed a matter of
downloading the appropriate .deb file and installing it by double
clicking the .deb file in your file manager.
Having said that, I have read on this forum that there are a few LMS
plugins that have not been updated to be used with LMS 8.x, for example
a few plugins that were made by author "Erland". If you don't use these
plugins, then there should not be anay problem. Of course it is always
good to make a backup (disk image) of your debian drive before updating
LMS.
