I think the package is still useful, although now with > yum the pressure to set up apt on rpm-based systems is decreased. I think it might be better to remove apt-rpm completely. APT-RPM gained support for the repomd format, and thus there should be no need at all to maintain those old-style apt-rpm specific repositories. It also duplicates a lot of code from apt, and is based on a really old apt version, thus probably inheriting a lot of security issues. Regards, Julian
