Hi,
I used to use either apt-get or aptitude to install packages. Is it OK to
do so?
I read [1] that it is not a good idea.
Please comment.
thanks

There is no reason that these two can't be mixed. Aptitude, however,
keeps track of packages in which you have marked, and will
automatically remove dependencies that are no longer needed. Check
"man aptitude" for more information.
