How to upgrade from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5?

Question

What steps should I take to upgrade from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5? I haven't got any update notifications till now.

Solution

There won't be any special notifications for this. Just do the standard updates.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.

Stormlord: in your answer to the OP, 2 days ago, you said that sudo apt-get dist-upgrade will upgrade from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5! So my question was simple: will 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' upgrdae from 14.04.3 to 14.04.5, too? (that's what I need). Note that "do-release-upgrade -c" answers that it will upgrade to: 16.04.1 LTS (which I don't want)

I don't understand what you mean. Going from 14.x to 16.x is a release upgrade. Going from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5 is a release update and it's done as explained in my answer.

I asked about going from 14.04.3 to 14.04.5; not from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5

It's the same thing. The system will be updated to the last one even if you start from 14.04.

I was about to ask a question on going from 14.04.4 to 14.04.5, because for me sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade does not work and I seem to be stuck at the Feb 18, 2016 upgrade version 14.04.4.

Is there an solution this question? This answer blatantly doesn't work.
