Sorry, I don't see how this is a bug in current lilypond master. I bet that even
dblatex --version
would fail. Installing dblatex should also install python-apt.

Either fix your dblatex installation (it should depend on the package
python-apt, but otherwise you can install python-apt manually) or
remove dblatex completely (in this case there was indeed a bug in
lilypond master, but I pushed a fix at
e8bb4dcdf244ccda234b63df0a78635cf066be4c and it was tested and
verified).
