yum upgrade、yum update在linux中都可以用更新新軟件安裝包或升級軟件了,那么這yum upgrade、yum update有什么區(qū)別呢?下面我們就一起來看看吧.

在網上看到有人如下總結:

yum -y update

升級所有包,改變軟件設置和系統(tǒng)設置,系統(tǒng)版本內核都升級

yum -y upgrade

升級所有包,不改變軟件設置和系統(tǒng)設置,系統(tǒng)版本升級,內核不改變.

測試一下所謂yum upgrade于yum update的區(qū)別:

基本信息:

1. [root@localhost ~]# uname -a    
2. Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Feb 22 00:31:26 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 
3. [root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release  
4. CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 
5. man yum： 
6. --obsoletes:This option only has affect for an update, it enables yum´s obsoletes processing logic. For more information see the update command above. 
7. Configuration Option: obsoletes 
8. upgrade:Is the same as the update command with the --obsoletes flag set. See update for more details. 
9. update:If run without any packages, update will update every currently installed package.  If one or more packages or package globs are specified, Yum will only update the listed packages.While updating packages,yum will ensure that all dependencies are satisfied. (See Specifying package names for more information) 
10. If the packages or globs specified match to packages which are not currently installed then  update  will not  install  them. update operates on groups, files, provides and filelists just like the "install" command. 
11. If the main obsoletes configure option is true (default) or the --obsoletes  flag  is  present  yum  will include  package obsoletes  in  its  calculations - this makes it better for distro-version changes, for example: upgrading from somelinux 8.0 to somelinux 9. 
12. Note that "update" works on installed packages first, and only if there are no matches does it  look  for available packages. The difference is most noticeable when you do "update foo-1-2" which will act exactly as "update foo" if foo-1-2 is installed. You can use the "update-to" if you’d prefer that nothing  happen in the above case.
