"Update", "Upgrade" and "Update Manager"
Friends;
As per the advise of one of ourlaunchpad.ne's member I usually feeds
following two command to terminal window.
1. sudo apt-get update
2. sudo apt-get upgrade
Immediately after executing the above commands, when I look at the
"Update Manager" it shows some important updates for security and
others to download and install.
My questions are:
(1)
As once the system is updated and upgraded, why "Update Manager"
shows its need of downloading and installing?
(2)
What is the difference between "Update" and "Upgrade" ?
(3)
What I am doing very frequently with above TWO commands is
a proper way? OR Am I making some mistake?
(4)
Should I download and install through "Update Manager" despite
executing "Update"and "Upgrade" ?
Please guide and oblige me.
Thanks to all in anticipation.
