If you're using synaptic, go into settings/repos and turn the ppas that 
you use back on. They are turned off during the dist-upgrade. After I 
did that, the upgrades poured in. Or, use the PPA Manager.

Since 13.04 is barely out of the door, I wouldn't expect many upgrades 
happening soon from Main. The devs are all probably rolled up in corners 
and panting from getting it out. So far, nary a burp in the barrel, 
except that I did have to go into rescue mode twice to force a rewrite 
of grub. That fixed that. Ric
