As I can pretty much number the debian users on this list on my hands
(yes, sadly the gentoo users now outnumber the debian users), I just
assume all apt questions not from our known debian users are assumed to
be for apt4rpm.

But I do think that any questions about any program or configuration
issue should mention your distro brand and version.
