I clearly agree, apt is ugly and even synaptic making it better. But like i said, while ago when I used synaptic I did break my packages and I got to use dpkg and apt, to repair.
Since, I guess, I’m on a PTSD about it and now just use apt or dpkg, when using a Debian or Debian based system.
But I will listen to you, and for sure will give it a try
No that was an synaptic issue, dont remember now the specific issue,
But it didnt managed well, certainly a bug at the bad moment for me at this time XD
But hey i dont regret, i know how to manage a broken apt DB now XD. I guess… x)
Omg apt is like the worst UI there is.
Have a look at nala! It needs some depencies but is a huge upgrade
The worst UI?
Clearly you’ve never used
zypper dupHahaha zypper is hell. This must have looked cool when internet speed was slow. But its just horrible.
One of the things that keeps me from staying with OpenSUSE.
That, and its overzealous security policy.
Mind to elaborate? That sounds like a good thing.
Ah ah i will one day.

Nala is an apt wrapper, it just displays stuff better, automates updates and automatically chooses the fastest mirror (thats the stuff I know)
Normally like synaptic no ?
I dont know why a (tui) wrapper should cause stuff apt doesnt. Its likely an apt problem.

apt is easy to use and read. I haven’t dreamed of searching for a shiny replacement because there’s no problem to solve.
