There is no "apt-get full-upgrade" nor "apt dist-upgrade".

apt or apt-get upgrade does upgrade in passive mode: It never install new
packages, never removes existing ones. Just upgrades existing ones as far as
possible.

apt-get dist-upgrade does upgrade in proactive mode: It installs new packages
and removes existing packages if need be.

OTOH apt full-upgrade works in between: It never installs new packages (as in
upgrade), but removes existing packages if need be.

I never use apt, so I am relying on the man page. It seems that there is no
equivalent of "apt-get dist-upgrade" in apt.
