| 140 | Perform an update working similarly to the <command>update</command> command above, |

| 143 | This requires an installed &wget; and an APT build configured to have |
| 144 | a server to fetch from and a master keyring to validate. |
| 145 | |
| 146 | APT in Debian does not support this command, relying on |
| 147 | <command>update</command> instead, but Ubuntu's APT does. |
