Upgrading in RedHat and Debian?

Hi:

Once you've done an apt-get update, you can use the apt-cache program to
look at available package lists.  Useful commands are:

apt-cache search <expression>      search for packages containing
	<expression> in their descriptions.  Good to pipe through more
apt-cache show <packagename>      List full details for the given package

Do a man apt-cache for more info.

Geoff.
