How to Update Bash on Debian and Ubuntu
- These instructions are intended specifically for updating Bash on Debian and Ubuntu.
- I’ll be working from both a Liquid Web Core Managed Ubuntu 14.04 server and a Liquid Web Self Managed Debian 7.4 server, and I’ll be logged in as root.
apt-get autoclean
Updating Bash is as simple as running just one command:
apt-get install --only-upgrade bash
Optionally, it is possible to Upgrade all of the installed packages at once with the following command:
apt-get upgrade
