Debian package install

Simply type aptitude install packagenames, and it will automatically fetch, install, and configure the package(s) specified.

aptitude update is used to refresh the package list maintained by aptitude. This will enable you to download the latest packages. Accompanied with this is usually aptitude dist-upgrade, which upgrades all packages you have installed to the latest version that exists in the apt database.

Other useful commands are aptitude purge packagename, which deletes a package and all of its configuration files, and aptitude search searchterms, which will search for packages which have names or descriptions matching "searchterms".
