You might also try out aptitude.  Console-apt isn't in 2.2; it used to
be there but IIRC it was taken out.  Aptitude is in 2.2, although the
version in woody is much improved.

I'm still running both of them and they each have features I like.  And,
features I dislike.

The fact that console-apt segfaults on terminal resize is a big minus
for that one, I'll grant you that :).
