That's the thing...it doesn't. I'm not really sure where it's caching
things, which is why I thought I'd ask the experts. :)
Actually, I'm finding that if I know what I'm looking for, apt-get from
the command-line does a much better job. Aptitude seems to do some funky
things with dependency resolution. I'm sure the problem exists between the
keyboard and the chair, but that doesn't make it go away. :)

- Charter Communications: Mislead their customers about service
levels, block normal Internet connectivity, and exhibit excessive
downtime.
- AT&T: Honoring the "checks" they send out to entice you to switch
long-distance providers is apparently optional.
- eFax: Receive (not send) 20 pages of *unsolicited* faxes, and lose
your account.
