The lsb_release information will only be updated for major versions, not minor ones.
Not all of the new tools were added to the default iso as it helps us keep the iso smaller while still having all the core tools. You will need to apt-get the ones you want manually.

From the kali blog post: Pass the Hash toolkit, Winexe and more (http://www.kali.org/kali-monday/pass-the-hash-toolkit-winexe-updates/)


apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
apt-get install passing-the-hash unicornscan winexe
apt-get install unicornscan enum4linux polenum
apt-get install nfspy firmware-mod-kit wmis

From the release of 1.0.6, release numbers will show up.
1.0.5 and under, will still show up as 1.0

Is it possible to use


apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot

to "upgrade" from 1.1.0 to 1.1.0a?

I'm current on updates and all I see when I try upgrade or dist-upgrade is:


Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Then you're up-to-date.
lsb_release will not show '1.1.0a' as it was a release due to the first release having a bad kernel.
