That't odd. I just booted up a 2354-package jessie system after 10 days and got 46 security updates and a new kernel (the latter requiring dist-upgrade, of course). Won't this continue happening until 2020-06-30? > dist-upgrade is most unlikely to bring it to its knees. I can't follow what the fuss is over whether to use upgrade or dist-upgrade. Normally I just upgrade whenever I'm told (by my cron job) that -d upgrade has downloaded something into the cache; if I'm then told that packages are being held back, I dist-upgrade. Cheers, David.
