Hello Jerom,

it is confusing what you're writing.  You have zope-doc-2.6.1-132 installed and apt shows that 2.6.1-155 is available.  Let see what is the result of:

apt install zope-doc  does the new version get installed?

Yes, the the new version gets installed.  When I use apt upgrade on a batch of packages they are not installed.  What is the command to upgrade and install the upgrade? Thanks, Jerome

It is apt-get upgrade. What does the output show, before you hit the 'y' button? I actually don't think it makes sense to copy the suse list.

What is the output once the hit the "y" button?

Did you already investigate why the following packages will not be updated?

To a degree, I did install the mozilla series individually. The gabber package was missing a library dependency and when synaptic tried to install it synaptic crashed. What I want to know is why 'apt-get upgrade' did not upgrade the packages it downloaded upgrades for(1403). I had to use synaptic to actually get the upgrades installed. Isn't 'apt-get upgrade' supposed to download and install a group of packages?

You can do that with apt-get install <the name of single pkg> e.g. apt-get install gabber
