Agreed, "Distribution version" isn't exactly clear to novice or even intermediate users.
I'm guessing this text is common to many versions Linux Distributions using Adept to update.
Recommend that this be changed to add text like "major upgrade" and specifically mention Ubuntu (or Kubuntu etc) to reinforce the fact that this change is OS wide, and not app or package specific
also link to a help page detailing Ubuntu's release cycles
