DESCRIPTION

       Update-manager is especially designed for upgrading your system, or migrating your system towards a more recent version.

              Check if a new distribution release is available

       -d, --devel-release
              Check if upgrading to the latest devel release is possible

              Try to run a dist-upgrade

       --dist-upgrade
              Try to run a dist-upgrade
