| This was my opion, because

| says at 4.4.6. Upgrading the system
|
| The upgrade process for other releases recommended the use of aptitude

| squeeze.
|
| So i belive at apt-get today is better than aptitude solve depencies,

| aptitude to choose these packages for installation or by trying apt-get
| -f install package."
|
| I hope at this clarify my opion, which may be misunderstand at facts.
|
| After i upgrade my system from Lenny to Squeeze. Aptitudes packet states

| better than aptitude, may be false way.
