It's not just an upgrade of an existing package. By default, "apt upgrade" will allow new packages to be installed, but "apt-get upgrade" will not. You can use "apt-get dist-upgrade". Or you can use "apt-get --with-new-pkgs upgrade".
Or simply "apt upgrade", which can install new packages (but cannot remove installed packages, unlike "apt-get dist-upgrade").
