From man aptitude
full-upgrade
Upgrades installed packages to their most recent version,
removing
or installing packages as necessary. This command is less
conservative than safe-upgrade and thus more likely to perform
unwanted actions. However, it is capable of upgrading packages
that
safe-upgrade cannot upgrade.
Note
This command was originally named dist-upgrade for
historical
reasons, and aptitude still recognizes dist-upgrade as a
synonym for full-upgrade.
