You should be able to do the same thing with Synaptic, just hit the
Reload option, which takes care of "apt-get update". Now if all is
right, update manager should show updates available. click it to
install the latest updates.

If update manager doesn't show, you can update using "apt-get upgrade".

Good Luck,
