Figure 2.6: Suggestion Dialog for Updates
Update with Installation of New Software
To update the entire system to the latest software versions, select one
of the predefined selections. These selections are the same as those
offered during the installation. They make sure new packages that
did not exist previously are also installed.
Only Update Installed Packages This option merely updates packages
that already exist on the system. No new features will be installed.
Additionally, you can use ‘Delete Outdated Packages’ to remove packages
that do not exist in the new version. By default, this option is preselected to
prevent outdated packages from unnecessarily occupying hard disk space.
Packages
Click ‘Packages’ to start the package manager and select or deselect indi-
vidual packages for update. Any package conflicts should be resolved with
the consistency check. The use of the package manager is covered in detail
in Section 2.3.4 on page 56.
