I've added rpm_exec_t entries for the apt programs in my tree.

If we are going to have apt as a recommended program or if we have some setup 
with yum or up2date whereby one program gets the files and another does the 
install (similar to the apt-get/dpkg) then we could write policy to 
support/enforce that distinction.

However I expect apt to be phased out, so it's probably not worth doing.
