I can confirm (in Hardy, post beta) that the command line version works beautifully; e.g. as per my example of the alien package, after doing a fresh install from Synaptic:
--- $ sudo apt-get autoremove alien Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: debhelper intltool-debian po-debconf gettext libtimedate-perl dpkg-dev html2text patch The following packages will be REMOVED: alien debhelper dpkg-dev gettext html2text intltool-debian libtimedate-perl patch po-debconf 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 9 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 12.4MB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y (Reading database ... 147198 files and directories currently installed.) Removing alien ...
