Augh, no don't do that!
Upgrading APT will have to be in the release notes, you *HAVE* to run
'apt-get install apt'
For alot of reasons, more than just perl, and you have to be running the
new APT before you start going and installing other things for it to be of
any value (ie depends are pointless)
