    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

      There is nothing more serious than Zypper!
