Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ppa-purge

Because of LP: #641142 "aptitude" is now a dependency of ppa-purge. In
recent Ubuntu versions, this package is no longer installed by default,
because everything it does can be made by apt-get instead.

Now, trying to install ppa purge makes the user install aptitude, even
when the program can use apt-get. This behavior should change, and ppa
purge should use the package manager that is installed on the system
(either aptitude or apt-get, it should check on run time).

** Affects: ppa-purge (Ubuntu)
