where can i get a hold of apt-get ?


hello everyone,
i'm not a debian distro user and as such i probably lack basic information about the distro. i need however to get a hold of a source of apt-get in order to compile it in scratchbox an arm toolkit/emulator, which in turn is installed in slackware and as a result never included apt-get in its installation.

but now i need it to install qt library as packaged in debian, cause i can't seem to be able to compile qt sources in scratchbox, so as to get its shared libraries in arm-arch....

so going back to initial request... where can i get apt-get source from?
thank you in advance for your help

That is in fact the source. Please scroll down towards the bottom of the page where it says "Download apt". You will see a box with links to two files, the second file being the *.tar.gz source for apt.

Be sure you slow down enough to realize what is in front of you. I too have the tendancy to move too fast.
