Ignore Ron.  Aptitude has been the recommended (by DDs) package manager 
since Etch was released.  It has better dependency resolution, is more user-
friendly, and is a bit more tunable.

That is, unless you are trying to script the package manager.  In that case 
I think apt-get or libapt are better choices.
