 -classic used to be the default implementation; some time ago, it was
 forked into a -experimental implementation which wasn't experimental in
 nature but added support for mixing the experimental dist in your
 sources.list (cherry-picking build-deps from experimental as needed).
 For all functional purposes, the -experimental version should be better
 than the -classic one.  Then came the -aptitude version which is faster
 and relies on aptitude; the drawbacks is that it requires an external
 tool to be working and that it requires installing aptitude and its
 deps in the chroot, which means that it's not as minimal as it could
 be.
