apt-get and Synaptic (and probably dselect, which I haven't used) don't know
about aptitude's "automatically/manually installed" package status.

(1) You can disable aptitude's desire to remove "unused" packages.

(2) You can mark, with aptitude, the packages you "manually" installed
    with Synaptic (or apt-get) as being "manually" installed.

You're not stuck but switching to and from aptitude is more work than
switching between apt-get and Synaptic.  (I took option (2) and now use
only aptitude.)
