I don't believe that is the case, no. But I am not 100% certain. I'd be
interested to know for sure - the man page for apt-get isn't clear on
the point.
The GUI update manager offers a distribution upgrade when one becomes
available, and I'm pretty sure that no alterations to sources.list are
required before proceeding. Of course, the update manager may add the
entries itself, *then* do the dist-upgrade.
Regards, K.
