I'm guessing that the reference to a "GUI" was to aptitude's
"interactive" mode, which is indeed a curses interface.
They are (or at least should be) complementary, not competing tools.
As I understand it, it's not a good idea to mix-and-match between
apt-get and aptitude. I believe aptitude works best when it is the only
package manager in town.
According to Martin Krafft's site, aptitude is now to be preferred over
apt-get, certainly for dist-upgrades. See
