This happens more often than I'd like to admit...

(repost since the other one contained sensitive information)

It took me while to figure out that update and upgrade did very different things and I needed to run both in a specific order.

@bkwilliams apt upgrade && apt update && apt upgrade && apt update just to be sure :p

But I share that thought, I had no idea what anything did when I first started linuxing

Start using purge instead?

@electrineer It's more that I am used to npm, pip or similar package managers that have install/uninstall commands, apt does not :p

apt: apt update && apt upgrade
pacman: pacman -Sy<something>
yum: yum update
dnf: dnf update
pip: pip install -U $(pip freeze | cut -d '=' -f 1)

yum/dnf makes the most sense.

the pip one isn't elegant but you could alias it i giess

I alias my commands:
paci (pacman install)
pacr(pacman remove -flags)
