    Omg apt is like the worst UI there is.

    Have a look at nala! It needs some depencies but is a huge upgrade

      Ah ah i will one day.

      I clearly agree, apt is ugly and even synaptic making it better. But like i said, while ago when I used synaptic I did break my packages and I got to use dpkg and apt, to repair.

      Since, I guess, I’m on a PTSD about it and now just use apt or dpkg, when using a Debian or Debian based system.

      But I will listen to you, and for sure will give it a try

        Nala is an apt wrapper, it just displays stuff better, automates updates and automatically chooses the fastest mirror (thats the stuff I know)

            I dont know why a (tui) wrapper should cause stuff apt doesnt. Its likely an apt problem.

              No that was an synaptic issue, dont remember now the specific issue,
              But it didnt managed well, certainly a bug at the bad moment for me at this time XD

              But hey i dont regret, i know how to manage a broken apt DB now XD. I guess… x)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
