Yes - but certainly in aptitude (I am more familiar with aptitude than with apt) it is now recommended to use either aptitude safe-upgrade or aptitude full-upgrade depending on which you want. If I have understood yum correctly (and, indeed, I may not have!) aptitude update && aptitude full-upgrade more closely resembles yum update than aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade. I think that there is a different mind-set needed for yum and apt. Once one's brain is tuned to one it requires a certain amount of mental agility to switch! In my few attempts so far to use yum, my mental agility has been lacking and I have returned to the familiar with a sigh of relief!
