Sorry for this very basic question, but for the interactive Synaptic package manager that I use on LL 4.0, does that reach exactly the same repository as the command-line apt install command?
The reason I ask is that I've installed a piece of software via Synaptic, only to find out that what I installed was not the absolute latest version. The latest version of that software was released a few months ago and that is the one I want since it has a critical feature I need.
The manual for the software package says it's available via Synaptic Package Manager or using the sudo apt install command (it gives full instructions for that), but I was wondering whether those methods come to the same, or if they're two different repositories.

Using Linux Lite for everything now. I put it on my desktop and my laptop. Woohoo!
