Upgrade via apt-get upgrade

Will “apt upgrade” be still a bad choice with buster? Any hints why (just curious)?

Yes and No, it still could break your system if you do so but in current versions of OSMC you can not execute apt upgrade anymore anyhow

Different apt-get upgrade restriction

I’ve been messing around with monitoring all my servers (icinga2 for the curious) and decided to throw my RPI in the mix just for the hell of it. Since OSMC is currently based on raspbian-stretch the icinga2 agent actually installs and works fine, but the problem comes when it wants to run check_apt in order to check for missing updates. OSMC has a replacement Bash script for /usr/bin/apt-get which checks if you’re passing the upgrade command and exits if so. I know you can do apt-get nowarn-up…
