Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH 2/5] Ubuntu: Use apt-get instead of aptitude when installing guestfsd.

It's not clear why we use aptitude instead of apt-get in these scripts. In debirf 0.25 on Ubuntu, aptitude appears to be uninstalled during creation of the appliance, so it obviously doesn't work. Revert to using apt-get.
