The Trisquel-team should make up their mind what they want to offer to the world.

Trisquel is the easiest of the recommended GNU/Linux distributions listed on the Free Software Foundation's website. Keeping your system up-to-date is essential. All four Trisquel-7.0 versions I tested offer a graphical "software updater" that does not do its job:

- trisquel-mini-7.0-amd64.iso the graphical updater stalls.
- trisquel-mini-7.0-i686.iso the graphical updater stalls.
- trisquel-7.0-amd64.iso the graphical updater leaves you with another 33.7 MB of packages to download when you run sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade afterwards. - trisquel-7.0-i686.iso the graphical updater leaves you with 69.9 MB of packages to download when you run sundo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade afterwards.

Therefore, the graphical "software updater" should be removed and it should be clearly stated that users have to use the following commands using the commandline: sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade!

The combination sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade just wouldn't get the job done completely.
