If you set up the Windows Subsystem for Linux on Windows 10, you may find that when you subsequently select Bash on Ubuntu on Windows to obtain a Bash shell prompt, that you see a message indicating that packages need to be updated. E.g.:
106 packages can be updated. 71 updates are security updates. root@ANAHEIM:~#
You can get the updates with apt-get update
.
You can then install the updates with apt-get upgrade
. You may
need to respond to a "Do you want to continue?" prompt. If there are a lot of
updated packages to install, be prepared to wait awhile for the upgrade
process to complete.
