OK, I've not used apt-get so I'll ask a few questions:

 - can I request a specific version?
 - can I control the installed location?
 - can I install multiple copies of the same version in different
locations?
 - can I install multiple versions?
 - can I install software (in my own space) without root privilege?
 - can I roll back an upgrade?
 - can I automate this so as to be able to guarantee that systems
installed
a year or two apart end up identical?
