Luis,
I missed this email earlier. Consider using r-sig-debian for Debian / Ubuntu
question (but you need to subscribe before you can post).

By force of habit, I usually do 'apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade'.
I
can never remember where upgrade and dist-upgrade differ. Make sure you run
'apt-get update' first though.
One useful check is 'apt-cache policy r-base-core' where apt will tell
you
which versions from which repos it knows to be available and how it ranks
them (equally by default; you can change that with 'pinning').
Hth, Dirk
