I am using both apt-get and aptitude and it seems that they do not have the same policy for the old kernels management.

apt-get automatically installed two kernels: 3.13.0-36 (after a dist-upgrade) and 3.13.0-32 (the original one).

When I ask aptitude for updates, it tells me it needs to install the old kernel 3.13.0-35. I accept but then, when I run apt-get autoremove, kernel 3.13.0-35 is marked as unnecessary for the system.

So here is my question: why is there those differences between apt-get and aptitude and what is the Ubuntu policy regarding to the old kernel management?

Which solution is best: apt-get or aptitude?
