#231198 — about apt and aptitude update

FromHarry Putnam <reader@newsguy.com>

Subjectabout apt and aptitude update
Message-ID<BBEe5-2Jf-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
I use both apt and cmdline aptitude. Mostly cmdline aptitude

I'm curios if when I call `apt update' or `aptitude update', if they
are refreshing the same database files... wondering if I could do just
one update on either tool and that would do both.
