I use aptitude (the ncurses interface) extensively when creating a minimal install from a command-line version. I especially like the "no recommends" option, which allows me to pick and choose components when building up a system. apt-get requires me to know the exact name of a package ahead of time, and often wants to install a whole lot of other stuff that I don't want.
