        Is it?

        refresh makes it more clear than update that you’re not updating the computer’s packages, just the database of packages

        DPKG based distros also need dist-upgrade or full-upgrade, rather than just upgrade, when you are switching versions where removals might be needed

          Oh don’t get me wrong, I use Suse on a laptop. The commands strike me as funny looking. Like if I didn’t know what they did.

          There is nothing more serious than Zypper!
