It will if you use the right command :) sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade If you do "sudo apt-get upgrade" then it wont upgrade any packages that are dependant on something you don't currently have installed (i.e. a new dependency). a 'dist-upgrade' will install those additional packages.
