$ sudo apt-get install update-manager-core
$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

should do the trick.

  • Still same problem nothing happened (newest version were installed). – Alvar Apr 26 '11 at 09:22
  • @Alvar - sorry, I left off `update-manager-core` which is apparently required. I'm sure I just did the one-liner in that past and it worked. Perhaps the problem is that you're on an LTS version. Not sure. – boehj Apr 26 '11 at 09:27

    From [here](http://www.ghacks.net/2010/09/28/upgrade-ubuntu-from-10-04-to-10-10/) --> Now we need to make a simple edit to the /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades. This file determines the default behavior for the release upgrader. The line you need to change is at the bottom of this file. Change it from: `Prompt=lts` to `Prompt=normal` Then: `sudo do-release-upgrade -d` – boehj Apr 26 '11 at 09:29
