Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
Apt-get doesn't have as smart dependency handling and obsolete dependency removal as aptitude has. Ubuntu should, like debian, start defaulting to aptitude as the command-line package manager (ie. use it in examples, documentation etc.) I wrote a feature spec because I thought that would be the correct way to arouse discussion, but no one's commented anything so I'll try this way instead: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/aptitude- instead-of-apt-get ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- default from apt-get to aptitude https://launchpad.net/bugs/86163 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
