I think our users would figure it out if you just write apt (the tool and
package name), or if this really is a concern just use one of:

* "and repeat your command"
* "and repeat your package system command invoaction"

because one could use aptitude too, or not? Then the suggested would be
wrong too ;)

Either way, just use a single thing in both instances.
