[ubuntu-us-ma] Ubuntu-us-ma Digest, Vol 50, Issue 4

Fri Apr 8 14:14:04 UTC 2011

If you do 'sudo apt-get upgrade' or 'sudo apt-get install' for a package set, it will do the requested action(s), and the update manager should show no new updates, since apt-get did them.  Update manager, Synaptic, Apt-get-- it's all the same thing, with different front ends.

I was thinking through things, and I remember one thing Martin ran in the terminal at the bug jam was sudo apt-get update.  Which might be the reason for me not seeing any updates in the update manager itself.
