Hi Reco,


Thanks for your reply, as, on a related note, this helps me with the
basic presentation that I an working on.  I was aware that synaptic is
now removed, but I wasn't aware what it it had been replaced with

I get info on what is in buster from this page

https://wiki.debian.org/NewInBuster

Would it be worth updating this page so others know to use
gnome-packagekit instead, even if this information is elsewhere.

Regards

Paul
