Advanced front-end for dpkg
This is Debian's next generation front-end for the dpkg package manager.
It provides the apt-get utility and APT dselect method that provides a
simpler, safer way to install and upgrade packages.
APT features complete installation ordering, multiple source capability
and several other unique features, see the Users Guide in apt-doc.
