To update packages, I tried command

sudo apt update

which responded,

4 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them.

then,

sudo apt upgrade and sudo apt dist-upgrade

both responded,

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded.

then,

sudo apt list --upgradable

which responded,

apt-transport-https/jammy-updates,jammy-updates 2.4.8 all [upgradable from: 2.4.7]
apt-utils/jammy-updates 2.4.8 amd64 [upgradable from: 2.4.7]
apt/jammy-updates 2.4.8 amd64 [upgradable from: 2.4.7]
libapt-pkg6.0/jammy-updates 2.4.8 amd64 [upgradable from: 2.4.7]

how can i upgrade these 4 packages?

  • try `sudo apt dist-upgrade` https://askubuntu.com/questions/81585/what-is-dist-upgrade-and-why-does-it-upgrade-more-than-upgrade – sinclair Oct 04 '22 at 10:14
  • @sinclair thanks for this suggestion, i tried it also and edited the question but response was ``` Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree... Done Reading state information... Done Calculating upgrade... Done The following packages have been kept back: apt apt-transport-https apt-utils libapt-pkg6.0 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 4 not upgraded. ``` – Muhammad Taha Oct 04 '22 at 10:17

  • Thanks a lot brother, I individually install all packages listed `apt list --upgradable` using command `sudo apt-get install ` – Muhammad Taha Oct 04 '22 at 10:40

    Please understand the reason. All the `apt` packages are currently in phased updates (which is evident from several Q&A's on this site). So either patiently wait, or disable phased updates on your system. – Artur Meinild Oct 04 '22 at 10:41
  • When confronted by apt doing something unexpected, add the use of `apt-cache policy ` to your toolbox. – user535733 Oct 04 '22 at 10:54
