live-helper just calls one single 'apt-get install' to install all
packages in one shot.

in order to reproduce it, you can create a simple repository containing
a binary package which ends with a '+' in the name, and apt-get install
that package.

as said previously, nothing live-helper related at all here.

--apt is to select apt or aptitude to be used. however, you can ignore
that - it's bogus information of the reporter anyway; live-helper uses
apt by default since way before lenny.
