I have a question that doesn't appear to have been addressed in these forums. I'm still on ver. 2.4 and my list of "packages have been kept back" just keeps growing longer.
Before I upgrade to 2.6, should I run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" (as shown below) and then reply with "Y" (when prompted as to whether I want to continue) in order to upgrade the packages that have been kept back? Or should I perform the upgrade to 2.6 first and see which, if any packages are still "kept back" afterwards? Thanks.
