From my humble experience, dependency resolver in aptitude is now better than apt-get one in most cases (not in all, though). Aptitude has wider choice of command-line options than apt-get. I would recommend aptitude for Lenny, with fallback to apt utilities. But Michael or Daniel can judge better. -- Eugene V.
