But if you didn't apt-get upgrade would you get to keep the same wife version for ever?

I don't think that would work:

 

sudo apt-get upgrade
    Reading Package Lists... Done
    Building Dependency Tree... Done
    The following packages have been kept back:
wife

 

you'd need to:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Ah, almost, but to get rid of the old version of wife first you need to:

sudo apt-get --purge remove wife

 

If the new version of wife isn't quite ready yet, you might have to temporarilly:

sudo apt-get install mother

 

But be very careful not to install mother-in-law by mistake after purging old wife.
