so when I ran command ap-get upgrade it installed all the ones that were in my Update screen.....

So I'm wondering if thats all it ever does, is upgrade installed apps
Correst but not just apps underlying libraries and drivers could also be upgraded. Which can break things. If you just have the standard repos this is should not be an issue.

The pacakge you listed in your post is just an app.

For me I got three packages to upgrade when I ran "apt-get upgrade" just to see. None of which were obivious to me what they were for. The first two seem be releated to international language support and the last to do with package distribution after some googling.
