5 Best package manager. Takes less resources and goes right down to the point. I tried lots of other linux distros and in the end I always find my self using synaptic. Most of the other package managers resets after you install a application which means if you are scrolling through the list of applications you will loose the list position which is very innoying. The best part is in synaptic you can save the markings and email it to your friends or save it for later use in another computer.

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.
