..playing around with all the "apt family members" helps you find
solutions whenever any of the members fails to solve a dependency
etc puzzle.
..pick a favorite goto member and use that as your "daily driver"
to keep your apt depencency puzzle database manageable, and keep
yourself proficient on the other members so you can use those to
find solutions whenever your goto member fails to solve a puzzle.
And don't forget the trusty old dselect
To this day it is my main tool.
One of the most important behavioral differences between the
dselect and apt descendants is that the dselect dependency solver will
remove packages by default, while apt solvers do not.
