You may also notice that the files do not have names that you would 
expect. I have included a script that was posted on the freshrpms list 
and that renames the files to the correct name.

Just do:
aptclean *.rpm

rpms=$*

for file in $rpms; do
    real=`rpm -qp --queryformat="$FMT\n" $file`
    dir=`dirname $file`
    echo $dir/$real
    if [ "$file" == "$dir/$real" ]; then
	echo "no change for $file"
	continue
    fi
    mv $file $dir/$real
done
