Is there an apt equivalent to yum's history and undo

Does apt have a similar mechanism to "yum history" and "yum undo"? I would be surprised if apt lacked such a feature.

apt has a log file.

I am not aware of any undo command in apt.

No APT does not have that functionality. You could relatively easily add similar functionality to APT if you need it. Look at the history_undo code in __init__.py in the YUM sources for starters.

Thank you. I'll consider it.
