Extras, using repomd repositories. You're comparing yum with Debian's
apt with their repos (different number of files and packages; should be
greater, but I don't know if "main" contains all their packages, or is
it something like our "Core").
apt-rpm also has its own repo format which is much faster to download
and parse than repomd. You should check it out :)

I would have conducted an apt-rpm vs yum test, but I'm on x86_64, and
last time I checked, apt has lousy bi-arch support. (Did it improve)
FYI I'm using Debian unstable which has comparable number of packages.
