Hi All

Hello hello 👋

I was sure surprised to be able to install apt, however, in /etc/apt/sources.list is empty. The man-page only seems to make references to Debian versions. So, inquiring minds wanna know. Right this second I don't remember which I used, pacman or yay? Thanks so much in advance

apt is available in the repositories as a optional dependency for [mkosi][0] which uses it to generate Debian based images. So the idea is _not_ that you use apt as a system package manager directly and you will probably bork your system in doing so :D
