aptitude isn't good at hen-and-egg-problems

Good grief!

Yep apt does things differently.
apt: ""You are about to do something potentially harmful."
I typed "Yes, yadda yadda ..."
It deinstalled hundreds of packages, just as I instructed it to do,
including apt, aptitude and deselect. Tadaaaa!
I had a snapshot and restored it.
Now, there is obviously no way out of this - so be it.
I will do a fresh install of Beowulf because I really have more
important things to do.

Cheers to all and also all the best
