I will immediately give aptitude a shot. Thanks! Trivial correction (or misunderstanding): didn't you mean "Learn" instead of "Lean" in the second-to-last sentence of your original post?

Clear and to the point. I had read somewhere that you shouldn't use both apt-get and aptitude, and since I had already started using apt-get, I stuck with it. Now I'm gonna switch. :) Really nicely written article. Clear and to the point.

I never had to mess with dependency hell with rpm distros. That's because I used distros that had package management systems. Package management for Debian probably sucked before apt too.
