Anything you do with apt-get, apt or dpkg (or any other package management
tool) is permanent.

The only things in this realm that *aren't* permanent are stopping or
starting a service, e.g. "systemctl stop foobar".  Those operations do
not affect the state of the system at the next boot.  (For that, you
would use enable, disable, mask, or unmask, all of which are permanent.)
