  • Why would you want to upgrade a LTS release that's supported for years to a development release that's supported for months? – Elder Geek Feb 20 '15 at 16:29

Have you tried Update Manager, from the Systems menu. Above the packages list will be a notification to upgrade to the latest version - Press this button to upgrade. It Updates Upgrades (if chosen), I have newer seen it to mess with my personal files or data, only the installed packages.

You can also use the terminal with these commands:

  • sudo apt-get update
  • sudo apt-get upgrade
  • sudo do-release-upgrade

It request your password, but doesn't show anything (security) And it will ask for confirmation on upgrades.
