apt-rpm actually supports yum repomd repositories now. If you look closer at 
the default sources.list.d entries, you'll notice that they're all repomd 
repositories. You just have to add a line to sources.list or to a new file in 
sources.list.d for planetccrma to get it to work with current apt-rpm.
