APT: Normal and Security Updates

This page says the following

This check checks for available normal and security updates by trying apt-get update or apt-get dist-upgrade without actually installing packets.

I am assuming that there’s a couple of typos here?
When I get to configuring this in checkmk myself, I only have
apt-get **upgrade** and apt-get dist-upgrade
Additionally I think it means to say packages rather than packets ?

Best,

Nick

Hi @clups and thanks for reporting this! Both findings are valid. I submitted an internal change which will fix this. It will probably be released with the next patch releases of Checkmk 2.2 and 2.3.
