Cupt does not have multi-arch at all as far as I know. Apt2 does not do anything useful at all, it's mostly vaporware at the moment. PackageKit is far too high-level to replace anything aptitude does. Some functionality of aptitude has been included in APT itself recently, such as the 'download', 'changelog' commands. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member See http://wiki.debian.org/JulianAndresKlode and http://jak-linux.org/. _______________________________________________ Aptitude-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aptitude-devel
