Oh I have fond memories of aptitude breaking my system. Once it
suggested me to remove most of my system, including apt, I thought it
was going to upgrade it so I confirmed it. I had to reinstall apt from
the debian packages website.
In this new installation I gave it another try but when it started
suggesting very weird plans(like remove all gnome packages) ...
It seems like aptitude has gotten a lot smarter lately. :)
Not this morning it wasn't.
Aptitude has been refusing to do a full upgrade on my Jessie system
for the past two weeks because it said it needed xorg-video-abi-12 but
it said it is not installable. Well, not so. I tried running Synaptic
this morning and it had no problem finding what it needed and installing
it. I still don't understand what the difference was but Synaptic did
what aptitude said it couldn't do. What could be the difference ? Does
Synaptic not use the same repo source files aptitude uses?
Cheers
