APT Guide
We all know that APT is the most superior package management system on Linux, but did you know that theres more to APT then just apt-get?
Well I didn't, until now

Its good, but in my experiences its far from perfect. Had some dependency problems that weren't solved automatically, and packages refused to be forced to install, despite me knowing I had the necessary libraries etc.
I regularly use apt-cache to find package information, when something goes wrong.
