Docs-only PR: HACKING.md switched from apt-get to apt for setup instructions. Merged as commit 14bbd1bf7 ("Change apt-get to apt in HACKING.md (#564)"), addressing Launchpad bug 1591421.

Resolution: closed resolved

Reason: The PR itself was merged; commit 14bbd1bf7 in snapcraft carries the message 'Change apt-get to apt in HACKING.md (#564)', confirming the two-line documentation change landed in the repo. Maintainer come-maiz approved it, noting the underlying bug1591421 was unrelated to the change.

Issue body
