aptitude full-upgrade is the equivalent of apt-get dist-upgrade.  aptitude
safe-upgrade has different checks.

  It is what is written in the man, but experience shows this is not true.
  After installing kernel 3.2 I tried both:
  apt-get dist-upgrade, which gave
    1060 upgraded, 312 newly installed, 18 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
  aptitude full-upgrade gave
    1050 packages upgraded, 313 newly installed, 30 to remove and 0 not 
upgraded.
    and then asks for removal of 18 other packages.

  which means that aptitude wants to remove 52 packages, and apt-get 18
  It's difficult to say what is the good choice, but anyway then are not 
equivalent.
  (apt-get upgrade gives:
     801 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 261 not upgraded.)
