My computer is not receiving the 16.04.1 update [duplicate]

  • 772

I've read recently that the 16.04.1 update was made public last week. There it says that users of 16.04 should only run the usual system update to receive this upgrade. However I'm not receiving this update at all. I tried with GUI Software Updater as well as Terminal commands sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, to no avail. I've changed the update server from Main to US and back to Main again, no effect. I've changed settings from Any new version to LTS only and back to Any new version again, still nothing.

I would like to know, if I'm not receiving the upgrade, what could be the reason for that, and also how can I make 100% sure that I'm running 16.04 and not 16.04.1? In System Details I can see it says Ubuntu 16.04, does that mean that it's definitely not .1?

    I had this issue too. Following this answer:

    You can see what version you have by running:

    lsb_release -a

    And you can upgrade by running (apt instead of apt-get):

    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

    Let me know how it works?

    And, yes, you would see 16.04.1 instead of 16.04. Here is a screenshot of my output:
