Ah, of course. I guess this wrapper is provided by Mint.

I am curious: What does the wrapper do? Can you share the source code here?

It appears to re-organize various apt-related commands and sub-commands (including ones provided by additional distro-specific scripts) so that they're all available as sub-commands of `apt`. I don't do much micro-management so I haven't really thought about what the "proper" underlying commands are, except when I've had to look up specific `dpkg` invocations. It's about 200 lines.
