Thanks for your reply i've just been experimenting this evening. True
apt-get has purge but when one uses aptitude it gives more info as
well as you say handles upgrades and dependency better.

But why is aptitude not more popular? - is it just because people
don't bother to read into it. It does seem to be used more on the
kubuntu forum i noticed but everywhere else i find folk use apt-get. I
find its just got everything there.
