Password Reset Mechanisms: The Online Security Threat Nobody’s Talking About

For those who use Ubuntu or Debian and still use apt-get and apt-cache
search, you might want to start thinking about using aptitude instead. Two
reasons include:

  1. It handles dependencies better. apt is pretty good with dependencies,
    but from my research it seems clear that aptitude is far superior

  2. You you can just just one command. aptitude is used to install, remove,
    and search for packages. This is great; the fact that I had to switch to
    apt-cache search to find things using apt has always annoyed me greatly.

Anyway, just wanted to pass it on in case anyone in the Debian/Ubuntu world
is interested. ::

Notes

1 The aptitude manpage.
