In the official release statement, we learned that this version can achieve smooth upgrades from Linux Deepin 12.12 to Linux Deepin 12.12.1, and provided the upgrade solution:

Solution 1:

First, open "Deep Software Center" and switch to the "System Upgrade" tab. Now we can see all available system updates. Click the Upgrade button to install available updates with one click, upgrade the system to the latest version.

Solution 2:

This solution is actually the same as solution 1, but only installs available system updates through the command line. You can open the terminal and enter the following command. When you execute the following command, you will be prompted to enter the user password we set during installation:

Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get upgrade

After the above two methods are completed, we need to restart the system to complete the final update. You can run the following command to check whether the version has been upgraded to the latest version:

Cat/etc/lsb-release

After executing the above command, we will see a similar result output:

1. DISTRIB_ID = LinuxDeepin
2. DISTRIB_RELEASE = 12.12.1
3. DISTRIB_CODENAME = raring
4. DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION = "LinuxDeepin 12.12.1"

The above command output result shows that the upgrade is successful. However, we would like to remind you that any commitment is risky. We recommend that you back up important data before installing or upgrading the system, just in case.
