## dumb question

Sat Apr 29, 2017 5:48 am

Hello, I was looking at Refracta via a live DVD. I liked the OS pretty well, except i couldn't for the life of me find an Update Manager or software center anywhere. Could someone point me in the right direction, please.
Thanks,
Sean

The update-notifier package exists, but you can't install it without removing the pin on *systemd* and installing libpam-systemd and libsystemd0. (See the release notes for how to do that.) You can use Synaptic to do update/upgrade.
Menu, System, Synaptic Package Manager, Reload, Mark all upgrades, Apply.
Same thing on command line:

Code:
  `apt-get update
  apt-get -s dist-upgrade # (-s/--simulate, to check the list first.)
  apt-get dist-upgrade`

Note: I will move this thread to the Help section. The howto section is for tutorials and guides.
