[Bug 546289] Re: (Inconsistent) use of apt-get and aptitude

 

We're doing what YannUbuntu suggests.

There should be no mention of the command line at all prior to chapter
6.

After chapter 6 (which is the chapter on the command line) we should be
using the GUI methods where we can, and only resorting to the command
line if there is no GUI method.

Change all mentions of aptitude to apt-get before the writing freeze.

Status in Ubuntu Manual: Confirmed

Bug description:
On page 143, the method of package management 'apt-get' is used, while the package management section starting from page 127 is using aptitude.

There was a discussion in the wiki team which to use and they came to the rule: use apt-get. It would be a very strange move for the manual to use aptitude instead.

I know this is a controversial subject, but I think that for the sake of consistency between manual and wiki, the manual must use apt-get.
