It's likely nothing you did.  See this message from eariler Sunday:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/07/msg00074.html

I just verified today (Tuesday) that the Contents-i386 files that 
apt-file uses are still being generated empty.  That's a bug.  I 
believe that apt-file cannot work until it can access a proper 
Contents-* file, which means you'll have to wait until that's fixed.
