[18:48] <billfarrow> nivex: Hi Kev
[19:58] <JackWat> anybody alive?
[19:58] <JackWat> i was just looking at this wiki page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwitchingToUbuntu/FromLinux/%20RedHatEnterpriseLinuxAndFedora
[19:59] <JackWat> it says that 'yum update' is equal to 'apt-get dist-upgrade'. is that correct? i thought dist-upgrade would upgrade you from 10.04 to 10.10, not just update the newest packages
[19:59] <JackWat> dist-upgrade is listed twice as 'upgrade all packages' and 'upgrade entire distro'
[19:59] <JackWat> Upgrade packages
[19:59] <JackWat> yum update
[19:59] <JackWat> rpm -Uvh [args]
[19:59] <JackWat> apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:59] <JackWat> Upgrade the entire system
[19:59] <JackWat> yum upgrade
[19:59] <JackWat> apt-get dist-upgrade
[19:59] <JackWat> whoops. sorry for spam./
[20:00] <_marx_> dist-upgrade won't go to the next release unless you've edited /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the next release repos
[20:01] <_marx_> it will upgrade the entire distro _if the sources have been changed
[20:14] <JackWat> ah so is there any difference between upgrade and dist-ugprade?
[20:14] <_marx_> yeah
[20:15] <_marx_> kernel packages aren't included
[20:16] <_marx_> maybe some other things too but that's what i've noticed
[20:19] <_marx_> right now this box shows 8 packages either way
[20:21] <_marx_> i'm not aware of a yum line that will go to the next release
