The correct way to upgrade Ubuntu from the command line is "do-release-upgrade" (which includes extra upgrading smarts that apt alone does not).

Why doesn't the apt-get man page mention this? It is getting rather difficult keeping track of what the current recommended way is.

We're talking about upgrading from the 10.10 release candidate to 10.10 final, right? That shouldn't require "do-release-upgrade", surely.
