As the process is dependent on both your network connection and the performance of your computer, the upgrade could take anything from ten or 20 minutes to an hour or more. After the new packages are installed, you may be asked whether you want to remove any obsolete packages.
Does Ubuntu need update?
Yes, there is a difference. Ubuntu Software Center doesn’t install updates, it only installs new packages. Use Synaptic Package Manager to install updates of currently installed packages, which is the GUI equivalent of ‘apt-get update; apt-get upgrade’.
How do I force Ubuntu to update?
Open the “Software & Updates” setting in System Settings. Select the third tab, called “Updates.” Set the “Notify me of a new Ubuntu version” dropdown menu to “For any new version.” Press Alt+F2 and type in “update-manager -cd” (without the quotes) into the command box.
