What command are you typing to get this result?  If you're using
"apt-get upgrade", try "apt-get dist-upgrade" instead, or if you prefer,
"apt-get --with-new-pkgs upgrade".

I do indeed use apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, and I am aware that there are ways I can force them to upgrade, but should I?
