I am installing Centos SPARC and i just want to know if i can use apt on it, and if that's possible, how can i install it?? Thanks..

Apt for RPM is a dead technology ... The person who did apt is now doing smartpm:

Smart PM works with yum repos :)

To answer your original question: No, you can't.

Apt does not work with architectures that can have multiple libraries (aka. Multi-Lib arches).

A Multi-Lib arch is one that might have the same packages installed for more than one glibc and can run packages from more than one arch. An example is the x86_64 arch .. it also runs i386 packages. SPARC also can be Multi-Lib, so there is no apt repo for it on CentOS.

The only distro where we build and apt repo is i386.
