Yes, I believe it is the "clean" function that I need ...

But how to have the "clean" done automatically after I do updates via
'aptitude'?

Of course, I could write a script (as others have done) run via cron
to accomplish this.  But I swear that there's an option hidden in some
apt/aptitude/... configuration file somewhere that enables this behavior!

Thanks to all that are helping me work this out,
