      Class, let’s all thank ‘TeamAssimilation’ for showing us what not to do. Now, Brian, I think it’s your turn to wipe the drool off of his face, and make sure he hasn’t pooped himself again. I’m going to go call his parole officer and tell him that he’s in CLEAR violation of his parole.

    On my work PC:

    flatpak update && sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && reboot

    On my home PC:

    flatpak update && paru && reboot

    On my laptop:

    flatpak update && sudo dnf update && reboot

        A command line utility to manage AUR (Arch Linux User Repository) packages. The AUR contains about any imaginable package on Earth, it’s one of the greatest features of Arch. If you need some app, someone probably already packaged it in the AUR, so you don’t have to handle a manual update.
        AUR helpers allow installing and updating both official Arch packages and AUR packages with a single command.
        Another popular one that I use is yay.

    Is there a reason these commands weren’t at some point combined into one flag?

    I can see why you’d want separate “update” and “upgrade” options, but another flag that does both without writing such a long command would be nice.

    Maybe I just don’t know enough about apt and such a flag does exist? Maybe they’re just expecting folks to create an alias?

        Maybe for a server - regularly update the package list and compile a list of packages needed to be upgraded. Then send the list to an admin and let them do the update, so that it isn’t unattended.

          makes sense, other package managers do the same. mixed it up with upgrade dist-upgrade which i still don’t really get

            upgrade upgrades only installed packages, and only when it can do so without adding/removing other packages. dist-upgrade will do the same, plus upgrade packages that have dependency changes. If package A v1 depends on package B, but package A v2 depends on package C instead, using upgrade will keep your package A at v1, while dist-upgrade will install the new dependency and upgrade package A to v2.

      If you want to install something, do you wish to just update before hand, or to upgrade too ? I guess the former.

      Now you could add update to the install function, but it would mean if you updated 5 mins ago for install something, you would need to update again as you install something else.

      Better to keep them separated and call them as you wish.
