Aptitude upgrade.

#1 Post by Noone_ »

Hello,
After upgrading, the version is still 10, but not 10.5. Below is my sources.list file:
loc@debian:~$ cd /etc/apt
loc@debian:/etc/apt$ cat sources.list
#

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 10.4.0 _Buster_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20200509-10:26]/ buster contrib main

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 10.4.0 _Buster_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20200509-10:26]/ buster contrib main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main contrib
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main contrib

# buster-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster-updates main contrib
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster-updates main contrib
#
deb https://repos.codelite.org/debian/ buster devel


loc@debian:/etc/apt$
loc@debian:~$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Release: 10
Codename: buster
loc@debian:~$
Please let me know why the version was not changed. Thank you very much for your helps.
Best regards,

Check /etc/debian_version

And we're up to 10.6 now: https://www.debian.org/News/2020/20200926

try the following command:

Code: Select all

uname -a
and you should get something like this:

Code: Select all

Linux Debian 4.19.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.146-1 (2020-09-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Debian 10 - Buster on Compulab Fitlet2
Debian 12 - Bookworm on Acer Spin 1

Hello,
I think you all might have known that the Debian version is also shown in Information of System Settings/Hardware/System Info. Since I was unable to use attachment due to quota limitation, please click the link below to see the details:

It's just an other option to view.

Sorry, but not every user will be using whatever desktop provides whatever GUI app you said "all might know". No, all will not know. That is why we default to the terminal commands, which should work for all users, especially when we have no idea what apps they have installed. It's not because of geeky elitism.

KDE's about doesn't give specific point release information. I would just check /etc/debian_version as has already been suggested. Not that I've ever had an issue with upstream updates not being applied.

Thank you for clearing the air. It was unintentional mistake. I should have mentioned the Cinnamon Desktop Environment in my quote.
