Now whenever I am upgrading privoxy, I would like apt-get (or
aptitude or
whatever other software) to check if there any newer versions of the
dependencies and update those as well. Is this possible? If so, How?
'apt-get upgrade' and 'apt-get dist-upgrade' do that automatically.
Nope. apt-get upgrade or dist-upgrade wants to upgrade a slew of other
packages besides what I want. I dont want to upgrade the entire
system. I
just want to upgrade privoxy and its dependencies.
The ''upgraded'' dependency is not necessarily compatible with all of
its dependents. You might need to upgrade one or more of the _other_
dependent packages as well. This can be a real pain to sort out.
(just think how many packages depend on libc6!)
