[–] ozymandias117@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 child) They're talking about a Debian 12 -> Debian 13 upgrade On Debian, you get release notes on what commands to run. Ubuntu has their own software update utility, separate from Software Center or Discover, that runs the commands for you permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) Ahhh OK. I've always gone fresh for a full upgrade. But does apt dist-upgrade not work? That's what the docs say to do. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ozymandias117@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (1 child) You have to at least modify your sources.list.d manually first. For most people, updating sources.list.d and running full-upgrade will probably work fine... The full instructions are run dist-upgrade remove back ports remove obsolete packages remove non-debian packages clean up old configuration files add non-free-firmware (this is a 12 -> 13 specific) remove proposed updates disable pinning update sources.list.d to point to the next release apt upgrade --without-new-packages apt full-upgrade It takes like an hour? but it's still not "just press okay." Ubuntu's has broken on some upgrades for friends and they had to do the whole Debian process manually, but it does try to automate the removals, disablements, and updating sources Edit: instructions taken from Trixie release. I skipped some that aren't really unique, like make a backup https://www.debian.org/releases/trixie/release-notes/upgrading.en.html permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 1 year ago Ahh yea, thats not too great permalink fedilink source parent
