Are you trying to upgrade a remote machine, server?

Which version are you running currently? Lucid might need to be configured to 'upgrade to normal releases' instead of LTS only.

ah, so unbuntu does not check based on my version, it just assumes? I guess I was under the impression it felt I needed an upgrade.

Updates are available for your Maverick.


sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

upgrade doesn't mean distro upgrade here ;-)
