hello debian users, is there a way to do dpkg -i in silent mode like apt -q install ?
La09x09 2017-03-02 23:54:22
if I run : apt upgrade. why do I need to run apt dist-upgrade later and upgrade all over?

La09x09, what did you imagine dist-upgrade does
bazhang 2017-03-02 23:55:56
!dist-upgrade
dpkg 2017-03-02 23:55:56
dist-upgrade tells apt to also install/remove packages when handling dependencies; security updates may require a dist-upgrade to install (they introduce new packages). Dist-upgrade does not mean changing from stable to testing; apt and aptitude both call dist-upgrade "full-upgrade" to remove this confusion. Read man apt-get carefully. See also , .

babilen, Sorry for the late reaction, my internet connection seems fine, I can ping other hosts, I can even wget stuff, I can also just install packages.

again, is there a way to do dpkg -i in silent mode? like apt -q install does?

when apt does this, why not using apt?
