Yes, aptitude is the tool to use. However, if you read all the recent
threads on aptitude you'll see that the _first_ time you use it, you
need to get your options set (e.g. not including recommends as strong
depends) and go through the list of packages you have installed and
setting up the Automatic vs Manual flags.
Is this still necessary in etch? It should have been fixed (bug #411123).
