aptide used to be unique because it maintained the distinction between
packages you had requested and packages it had installed as
dependencies. I'm told that nowadays, apt maintains that information,
too, so apttitude users don't have to worry about thheir dependency
database being corrupted. I don't know if apt does anything with it,
though.
I guess this distinction between manually-installed and
automatically-installed is necessary for apt-get --auto-remove to work
at all.
This information is available to Synaptic as well. I have been
using synaptic alternatively with apt-get as from when it was available,
because I was never able to make sense of aptitude.
