"apt-get upgrade" only upgrades packages without additional new depencies that you don't have installed. This is to ensure that you don't get stuff that you didn't want with it.

if you wish to install all upgrades with all of their additional dependencies then use dist-upgrade instead:
Code:
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
