Remember the notice for feisty: "Feisty is NOT stable, and not even close to usable" Be careful with development versions. It seems like there was a known issue with adept being removed in feisty.

Be careful with development versions.

It's uninstalled itself from my machine and it's apt-get for me now. Feisty 4 is inimicable to adept it seems or have I just busted it? Ahh, where is it?

I don't doubt that we're going to include it, but I don't believe that this new version is completed yet. It probably won't make feature freeze. You may want to hit up mailing lists with these questions. Well, I know that mornfall is working on a separate new version, but that is separate from Kubuntu.

How different are the changes that mornfall has made that are upstream versus the changes that you have made? Will the changes you are are working be pushed upstream as well? I know mornfall has made some updates to Adept since Edgy came out from reading his blog. I think it would be silly to not push these upstream and have a totally separte version for Kubuntu.

The manager allows you to control all packages already installed on your system with considerable ease. The installer lets you seek out programs by a general idea of what they do. The updater serves to notify you when it's time to do what it does. Adept is essentially the same program, it merely has the separate interfaces to make your life a little easier. The Add/Remove programs label really makes things simple for most people though. Each serves a separate purpose.
