This is not what APT docs say. Maybe graphical tools flush the cache before attempting to download new packages. Maybe I'm wrong. Please correct me on this one. Also, graphical tools like Synaptic does not allow to mark, and then exit the tool before going ahead with the operation. In aptitude, you can mark install/uninstall/hold, exit the tool, and come back later to proceed with operation. ----- God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, courage to change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference.
