like it was said in the other post, if you're running stable you won't be seeing any other updates anyways, and if you're not running stable, you don't get security updates. but... if you want to do this anyway, copy the relevant lines to another file, say: /etc/apt/security.list then, apt-get -o"Dir::Etc::SourceList=/etc/apt/security.list" update apt-get upgrade note you'll have to do a regular apt-get update after this to get the rest of your software lists back. hth sean On Wed, Apr 16, 2003 at 05:44:13PM -0400, Gregson Helledy wrote: > I've been R'ing TFM but can't seem to find the answer: > > Is there a way to do "apt-get upgrade" but only upgrade packages for which > there have been security-related updates? > > The hack I can think of is commenting-out the non-security lines in the > sources file, but shouldn't there be something like "apt-get > upgrade --security-only"? > > Greg Helledy > > -- > Privileged/Confidential information may be contained in this message. > If you are not the addressee indicated in this message (or responsible > for delivery of the message to such person), you may not copy or deliver > this message to anyone.
