-====== Packages - Upgrade the packages ======
-===== Safe-Upgrade =====
-The safest way to upgrade is to use the action '**safe-upgrade**' as the previously used action '**upgrade**' has been deprecated.  The new action will upgrade a package only if it does not impact other packages, i-e: if it is necessary to add or remove a dependency package during upgrade, safe-upgrade won't upgrade.
-Issue the command:
-<code bash>
-aptitude safe-upgrade
-</code>
-===== Full-Upgrade =====
-If you want to force the upgrade anyway, the action '**full-upgrade**' (previously known as '**dist-upgrade**') can be used.  With this command, aptitude will upgrade to the latest version of a package even if it is necessary to add or remove dependencies.
-<code bash>
-aptitude full-upgrade
