aptide used to be unique because it maintained the distinction between
packages you had requested and packages it had installed as
dependencies. I'm told that nowadays, apt maintains that information,
too, so apttitude users don't have to worry about thheir dependency
database being corrupted. I don't know if apt does anything with it,
though.
