I think so: aptitude uses libapt, not apt it self, but 'wasting' disk space on desktiop is minimal. It looks like apt-* is directly used by Hildon Application Manager.
When I started porting aptitude on Maemo I supposed to use in mostly in Scrachebox/Maemo SDK, not on real device. I really hate apt-get/cache in Scratchbox (compare output of 'apt-cache search' and 'aptitude search' ) BR, Eugene Agafonov. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
