Upgrade ignores some packages and dost-upgrade tries to do more.
Aptitude is often said to be better and supports safe-upgrade and
full-upgrade as the equivalents to the above apt-get commands. Aptitude is
said to have a better dependency resolution algorithm.

I am a Mandriva refugee! I know rpm inside out, but not apt. When I issue
the above, sometimes I see e.g.:
26 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and *132 not upgraded*. (KDE
updates coming down).
If I use the gui or synaptic, it will let me update fully. Why won't it do
it from a terminal
