The consensus was that we list 2 commands in 2 sections as they do different things. So no change needed There was also consesnsue to swap sections around 4.2.2 (remove non-debian packages) and 4.2.3 (title not stated). However, current 4.2.2 is upgrade to the latest point release, and 4.2.3 is remove debian backports. Non-debian packages is now down at 4.2.6 -- so i think this bit has been solved. It diverged into a discussion of whether to also mention aptitude variants. The consensus was to stick with apt, as much as possible, but dont say other options cannot be used. So no change needed. Did i miss anything or should we close this bug?
