[PATCH ubuntu repost] Ubuntu: Use apt-get instead of aptitude when installing guestfsd.
Previously posted here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-December/msg00041.html I can't get aptitude to work under debirf (not on Ubuntu anyway), so using apt-get is necessary for me. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-df lists disk usage of guests without needing to install any software inside the virtual machine. Supports Linux and Windows. http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-df/

Since this only affects one script I can keep a patch in Debian to use aptitude (so we get clever dependency resoluton). Best fix would be to look at something like /etc/debian_version and select the right tool (UMTS unfortunately isn't reliable enough here to google what should be used to detect Ubuntu).
