I just updated from beta2 to RC1. The system runs fine, but I am curious what this message means. I updated using:
I didn't have to force anything this time as I had to with beta2. after the "sudo apt-get upgrade" I get this:
1) I think XBMC updated fine, but that there are updates to linux itself available, is that a correct interpretation?
then after running "sudo apt-get install xbmc" I get:
2) This puzzles me. I guess the three not upgraded are the same three seen earlier. But my system recommends autoremove. Is this some leftover stuff that can be deleted? As the system is running fine I haven't executed this command yet. I do want to know what it is though to improve my linux knowledge and to keep my system in shape but the names mentioned here don't ring any bells.
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install xbmc
