I'm using 4.3. Can you provide idiot-proof instructions for the Gnome
upgrade, should they not be:
<add mirror to sources.list>
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
When I tried the upgrade, a whole host of packages were held back -
nothing went too well after that. I need to learn more about apt
though.
