I don't think this is necessary, the upgrade from a prior release to the 
next is to be done by following the corresponding release notes anyway.

I'd suggest this instead:

    Note that apt-get now installs recommended packages by default and 
    is, for its robustness, the preferred program for package management 
    from console, to perform system installation, and major system 
    upgrades to releases as of Squeeze.

What do you think?
