It looks like Aap didn't detect that you are using a Debian system.
Could you try this (cd to the Aap directory first):

	% python
	>>> import os.path
	>>> os.path.isdir("/etc/debian_version")
	False
	>>> import RecPython
	>>> RecPython.program_path("apt-get")
	>>>

For you the "isdir()" should return True and program_path() the path to
the apt-get program.
