Unless I'm mistaken Apt is not included on 10.1 - but Smart is - or Yum. You can use these other rpm-frontends - and it won't cause problems with yast/zen/rug. Of course if you install unsupported packages with Smart it will affect security updates - but that's it. Now that the security updates are fed via a normal repo you can also install the official security updates with Smart for example. And please keep in mind this list is for community discussions.
