apt front ends in ubuntu breezy

i think you'd like these.

there is the update notifier in the gnome-panel, that alerts you to any upgrades.

there is add/remove programs, that has a catorgorised list of desktop programs you can install or remove.

and there is full on synaptic, for more advanced work.

they all play nicely together.

plus if you try to enable file sharing from the file sharing prefferences or try to set the clock to update from the internet, it will ask you (if necissary) if you want to install the relevent package.

could installing software and staying up to date be any easier?
