[From: Álvaro J. Iradier]

What's the difference between apt-get upgrading and using the
application manager "search for updates" option? I thought it was the
same...

If upgrading is not meant for consumers, why is that broken package in
the maemo repository? Shouldn't it be in sardine? I mean, what's the
point on having updated packages?  I thought this would be nice for
making bug fixes available to consumers...

Greets.
