Compare it with "Safe upgrade" and "Full Upgrade" in Synaptic (or used to
be; don't remember since I haven't used it recently).

Safe Upgrade = apt-get upgrade : if upgrading any package causes removal of
another package, such package is held back.

Full Upgrade = apt-get dist-upgrade : all packages are upgraded, even if
upgrading any package caused another package to be removed.

In both cases, the system is on the same release (10.04). It does not
upgrade to 10.10.

I daily do 'apt-get dist-upgrade' on my lucid machine, and I can confirm it
is still lucid and not maverick. :)

Just writing out of my own experience. Trying to dig out some material on
it (referred to it ages ago).
