5 Uno de los puntos fuertes de Debian y sus derivados. Quizá la mejor herramienta gráfica para instalar/desinstalar paquetes. No obstante, sigue siendo mejor la consola, para resolver dependencias sobre todo.

4 Easy to use, understand and very straighforward. What I'd suggest is to makeit a bit more user friendly by adjusting the GUI a bit.

5 When it comes to GUI package managers, I think synaptic is one of the best. If you ever switch to a distro without it, you'll miss it sorely. It's great!

5 Synaptic was one of the first things I got back in touch with after leaving Ubuntu. I wonder how I could have ever preferred the Software Center/Software Manager to this excellent tool.

4 A graphical frontend to apt. Synaptic is very good package manager and takes care of dependencies and broken packages. Only if there where nice categorizaition and reviews as in mint software manager. Interface needs some tidying up.
