Apologies if this is a dumb question, I'm really new to webi and working in the CLI and I hope I have understood how webi works, correctly.
My question is, and I'm not sure if this is the right way to articulate this, but is there a way to add certain packages to, for example, the apt source list so that those can be upgraded to the newest versions, en masse, with apt upgrade?
I have been working in WSL2 recently, and have been looking for some tools to help my colleagues use it as well. I like the idea of using webi to help get them set up, but the process of updating packages, especially those that I would want the most up to date version, seems a little tedious, if I'm understanding the FAQ page correctly. I understand why it is that way, but I thought it might be useful to have the option of adding certain packages to my package manager's source list. Things like pathman, maybe webi itself, git, github cli, etc.
That way, I can just run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y and not have to update them individually via webi. I don't know if I'm way off base or if there is a better way to do things. Thanks for any insights.
