apt is just the command-line tool.  Unless there is a library (I don't 
remember if there is for yum or not), you have to know how to parse the 
tool's repository format (yum's is rather easy, 'cause it's standardized as 
part of LSB IIRC)...

Unless, of course, you fork the installer process, which I guess you could do, 
though the problem is you will likely lose the really detailed error 
messages.
