you are using dist-upgrade you are probably doing it wrong. Ubuntu is<br>
NOT debian and doing things the debian way is probably not the best<br>
way of doing thing. The command to update and Ubuntu system to the<br>
latest release is using the do-system-upgrade command.<br>

behind the scenes it does indeed do a dist-upgrade, but it does a<br>
little more from what i can tell.<br>
