	apt-get
		APT will examine the available packages to decide which source package to fetch.
		This probably will mean that you will not get the same source as the package you have installed or as you could install.
		The option is sometimes necessary when running APT for the first time; APT itself does not allow broken package dependencies to exist on a system.

	[freshrpms.net] - Apt
		APT (Advanced Package Tool) is a dependency tool, well known to Debian users since it is used by default with their dpkg packages.
		But apt has been ported to work with rpm packages too, by Conectiva, who has now used it for some time in their GNU/Linux distribution.
		Since apt needs metadata about available packages, the original Red Hat Linux CD-ROMs can't be used directly with the apt-cdrom tool, which is why apt is generally used only through the network.

	Apt - LQWiki
		Apt (Advanced Package Tool) is a software package management system comprising a robust set of programs to manage the installation and removal of packages, with automated handling of dependencies.
		Apt was written as a front-end to dpkg, which performs the the actual installation/removal of packages, but can also be used with rpm thanks to Conectiva's port.
		Apt maintains a list of sources, from which it can get the necessary pacakge files with very little effort from the user.

	Apt-get Guide - Linuxhelp Wiki
		Next, apt tells us what NEW packages will be installed, which includes the original package 'mozilla-firefox' as well as all the dependencies.
		Remember when issuing an apt-get command that you should check what apt is going to do before you say "yes", or you could end up deleting a lot of packages that you didn't intend on doing.
		Updates your local apt database so that it is in sync with the sources defined in your sources.list file.

	SecureApt - Debian Wiki
		Secure apt is all about making apt verify the Release file before it does anything else with it, and plugging this hole, so that there is a chain of verification from the package that you are going to install all the way back to the provider of the package.
		Secure apt always downloads Release.gpg files when it's downloading Release files, and if it cannot download the Release.gpg, or if the signature is bad, it will complain, and will make note that the Packages files that the Release file points to, and all the packages listed therein, are from an untrusted source.
		The intent was that apt would accept one signature or the other depending on the key it had, but apt turned out to be buggy and refused to trust the file unless it had both keys and was able to check both signatures.

	apt-get (Linux Reviews)
		When APT is used as a dselect(8) method, clean is run automatically.
		It is possible that a system's dependency structure can be so corrupt as to require manual intervention (which usually means using dselect(8) or dpkg --remove to eliminate some of the offending packages).
		APT was written by the APT team .

	APT-RPM scripting
		Python bindings were intended to provide APT capabilities to Python programs, while Lua was intended to provide extension capabilities to APT itself.
		As is usual with the APT configuration system, if the suffix :: is appended to some configuration key, that key will be considered as a list, and value will be appended to that list.
		This is the version APT has seen as the most indicated for "upgrading" (could be a downgrade as well) given your current configuration, and is the version which will be marked for installation if markinstall() is used in that package.

		The key advantages of aptitude are spelled out in a posting by Joey Hess (one of the key Debian apt developers), Nine reasons why you should be using aptitude instead of apt-get or dselect [debian.org].

	All about Linux: A Concise apt-get / dpkg primer for new Debian users
		To get more information about a package like the authors name,the year in which it was compiled and a short description of its use, you use the -I flag:
		OK, this is a dpkg primer for new Debian users, but sooner or later everybody will have to use dpkg --force, especially dpkg --force-overwrite, because dpkg not being able to overwrite a file from one package with another is one of the most common error messages which need manual intervention.
		There are a couple of other nice things about apt on Debian, like apt listbugs, so you can check first whether you want to install potentially borked packages on Testing or Unstable.

	Installing apt (Advanced Package Tool)
		apt to the programs that are already installed in your Linux machine and configure it so that it can access the Planet CCRMA online repository and/or the Planet CCRMA cdroms.
		Note: the apt tools will only work if you have clean dependencies in your rpm package database, if you have installed or removed rpms with either --nodeps or --force, chances are you will have unmet dependencies (ie: package ``a'' needs package ``b'' to be able to work, but package ``b'' is not installed).
		If you are installing from the Planet CCRMA cdroms you need to configure apt to use the cdroms in addition to the internet connection to the repository (which is what you just set up by installing the custom sources.list file).

	Using APT on RPM-Based Systems \| Linux Magazine
		With APT, though, you do have the ability to easily change or add databases, even including databases for obscure programs that aren't part of the official distribution, if the programs' authors provide the necessary APT hooks.
		You may also want to check http://apt.freshrpms.net, which hosts versions of APT that are preconfigured in sensible ways for certain distributions.
		You should be able to use the same APT client package on any RPM-based Linux distribution, with one caveat: the package may have dependencies upon libraries, versions of RPM, and so on that may or may not be installed on your system.

		The default behavior of apt is to install the package with the highest version number, so by just adding the apt sources, one would pretty much just end up with a lot of packages from 'dapper' by default since they are very likely to have higher version numbers on almost all packages compared to e.g.

	Using APT with more than 2 sources
		If foo isn't installed and you run "apt-get install foo" you get version 1.1 from testing, since that version has the highest priority.
		If you run "apt-get -t unstable install foo" instead you get version 1.2 from unstable, since the -t switch temporarily causes that version to have the highest priority.
		foo will stop tracking unstable as soon as testing gets a version which is as new as the version which is currently installed.

	Cancer Issues - Black Women Less Apt to Get Breast Cancer Gene Test
		A mutation in either of these genes means a 50 percent to 85 percent increased risk of breast cancer and between a 14 percent and 40 percent increased lifetime risk of developing ovarian cancer, according to the study.
		While commercial tests for these mutations became available in 1996, Armstrong and her colleagues felt little was known about who seeks these tests and what factors keep women from getting tested.
		Armstrong said that, at the start of the study, the researchers expected differences in insurance coverage and other socioeconomic factors, as well as personal perception of cancer risk, would be the largest factors in determining who had these genetic tests.

		It wasn't totally pain free, and I did have to do a dpkg --force-all at one point, but it definately all works now, although apt seems a little confused over some packages not being needed.
