Log:
use aptitude for debian based systems

The function to check wether we need to install packages was using
dpkg-query which was gives wrong output on Debian 5

Also, the apt-get has been replaced with aptitude because aptitude
is now the preferred way to handle packages on Debian

(closes issue #15570)
