Interesting... At the risk of exposing myself as an idiot, I'll admit
that I've used Aptitude a few times and got lost in the interface
several times, not knowing exactly how to do what I want or how to move
through package menus.  It is not exactly the most user-friendly
interface I've seen.  For that reason I still prefer apt-get.
