apt is one tool, apt-get is another too, as is aptitude and synaptic.

Aptitude was dropped from the main install, but all you have to do is
"apt install aptitude" and you'll have aptitude once more.

As you can see below, aptitude still resides in Main for Ubuntu:

bladernr@galactica:~/development/git/maas-cert-server$ apt-cache policy aptitude
aptitude:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 0.7.4-2ubuntu2
Version table:
0.7.4-2ubuntu2 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
