Let me quote `man apt-get`:
upgrade
upgrade is used to install the newest versions of all packages
currently installed
on the system from the sources enumerated in /etc/apt/sources.list.
Packages
New install of Wheezy; from the DVD.
When I execute apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, I am given a list of 168
packages that have been kept back and not upgraded.
Why are they not upgraded ?
Cheers,
Ron.

If you download it first, then a simple `apt-get install gcc-4.3` later
will install it. This is because apt looks in the local package cache

The general answer is "downgrades are not supported". It is often
possible to just install the previous versions of packages with "dpkg"
Is it possible to "undo" an upgrade performed by apt-get, i.e. revert to
your previous state?
Thanks in advance...
Robert

After reading Karsten Self's comments on galeon I thought I would give it a
try since Netscape 4.75 is old and *not* impressive.
Downloaded galeon-0.12.tar.gz and unzipped and untarred it. When I ran
"configure" it came up with an error saying that I had glib 1.2.7 and needed
glib 1.2.8.
So I ch

Hi,
I am struggling to build deb package from source but
failed. I am quite new to apt so, for example I would
like to build kdebase from
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/latest/distribution/deb/dists/stable/main/source
I have added the line
deb-source

Also, where files get installed to is determined by the package, not by
apt-get.
Tom
Why would you want to do this? The whole point of having /usr/local is to
keep what you add to your system seperate from the main distribution. This
is at least Debian's implementation of what /usr/local should
represent. Is there a specific reason that you would want to prefer
/usr/local over /usr
Does anyone know how I can specify a destination with
apt-get? i.e. apt-get installs everything in /usr, but
I want to get it to install in /usr/local/...
Thanks in advance,
v

or at least I assume it's about apt-get. I just want to know if a
particular package is installed on my system, and I can't seem to find
that kind of option in the man pages for apt-get, dpkg or dselect.
Is there something like "apt-get --is-it-installed packagename" ?
Thanks,
