You can also use `aptitude`, available on both Debian and Ubuntu. It addresses your complaints and it's the first package I install.

- zanny 11y agoIt gets so incredibly slow when you have aptitiude around apt around dpkg. Its a minor complaint, but when pacman does everything I want and is probably a tenth the codebase of either yum, zypper, dnf, or apt, then I'm content.
- bad_user 11y agoI don't think aptitude is built around apt, but even so, I haven't noticed performance issues.
- mmarx 11y agoSince apt-1.0 (basically, since jessie), there's also apt(8), which integrates (most of) apt-get and apt-cache.
