Debian has two distinct packages, `ae', and `aee'.  The
output from apt-cache show follows.  They appear to be two
distinctly different packages.

$ apt-cache show aee
Package: aee
Priority: optional
Section: editors
Installed-Size: 443
Maintainer: Ramakrishnan M <rkrishnan at debian.org>
Architecture: i386
Version: 2.2.7-2
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.3-7), xlibs (>> 4.1.0)
Filename: pool/main/a/aee/aee_2.2.7-2_i386.deb
Size: 197724
MD5sum: a51e0856d84831c63c47cd4cb33a109b
Description: An easy to use screen-based editor
 aee (advanced easy editor) is intended to be an easy to use  screen-based
 editor that requires no instruction to use. Its interface is highlighted
 by simple pop-up menus, which makes it easy for the users to carry out
 tasks without remembering the commands.

$ apt-cache show ae
Package: ae
Status: install ok installed
Priority: standard
Section: editors
Installed-Size: 75
Maintainer: Dale Scheetz (Dwarf #1) <dwarf at polaris.net>

Conffiles:
 /etc/ae.rc d5ea2f0e59cd9f9b72669a0afbb807e1
Description: Anthony's Editor -- a tiny full-screen editor
 ae is a tiny full-screen text editor with both modal (vi-like)
 and modeless (emacs-like) modes, determined by an ae.rc config file.
 .
 Keybindings are configurable in the configuration file. The default config
 file is /etc/ae.rc, but other configuration files are provided
 in /usr/share/doc/ae, as an alternate example.

Thanks,
Brad
