You can update your system via
or by selecting
from the update icon in the notification area.
When you do this, the update viewer application launches and immediately
starts checking for updates. Once this check completes, it shows you an
overview of available updates, grouped by severity. The severities range
from security updates over important updates to bug fix updates and
finally enhancements.
Note that the severity information must be provided by the software
repositories where the software packages originate. This information may not
be available for development branches of distributions.
Below the summary of available updates, the update viewer gives and
indication how long ago the last check (or “refresh”)
for new updates happened, and when updates where last installed.
You can choose to manually refresh and verify the presence of
updates by clicking the Refresh button.
There is a option to view the history of updates including
previous installations, removal or updates of software.
Use the Update System button to install
all available updates or use the Review
button to review and select individual updates.
If you do not want to install updates at this time, you can just
close the window.
The Review button brings up a listing
of the individual updates that are available. The area below
the list displays detailed information about the selected update.
The information may include references to bugs and vulnerability
reports that are fixed by the update.
Note that the detailed update information must be provided by the
software repositories where the software packages originate. This information
may not be available for development branches of distributions.
The checkboxes next to each package in the list allow to select
individual updates for installation. Use the Apply
Updates button to install only the selected updates.
If you do not want to install updates at this time, you can just
close the window.
You can uncheck all the updates quickly by right clicking on the list and
selecting the menu item Unselect all.
