It is called Synaptic. If this is removed in Karmic Koala (10.04) then you can install it yourself by using the "Ubuntu Software Centre" and searching for Synaptic.
Or from the command line do
sudo apt-get install synaptic
The alternative is to just use "Ubuntu Software Centre" instead.
Well, for a server, aptitude or apt is what most people use. The front end you are thinking of though, is likely synaptic , though if you run KDE it'll be kpackage kit

As this is a server site. You make a good point. Does anyone run server with a GUI and Synaptic for package management? Mar 27, 2010 at 8:18
