apt and smart support for RPM Fusion and Livna

[Nigel Henry]

I'm sending this again, as it didn't seem to appear on the list, and it would 
be nice to have apt support for accessing the rpmfusion repo's.

I'd go for backporting it to F8, and F9 as well. Apt was working just fine on 
both the Livna, and Freshrpms repos, until the transition to Rpmfusion, when 
everything hit the fan.
