I spotted a bug couple of days ago where apt-rpm can crash with install 
/some/path when using non-repomd repositories if it encounters a package 
with no files in it. It's a bit curious because the code has been 
virtually unchanged since forever. This cures that particular problem:
svn diff -r180:181 http://svn.laiskiainen.org/apt-rpm/trunk/

If that doesn't help I'm going to need a backtrace of the crash.
