aptitude is not the recommended tool in ubuntu and never was (at least
in the 9 years i work on ubuntu) ... if it is recommended anywhere that
is definitely wrong and this recommendation should be adjusted to
apt-get.
all package management and its UI tools revolve around apt since day
one.
you could as well rant about the fact that we dont include dselect by
default ... both are debian tools that arent used in an ubuntu default
installation ...
