Apt on F8 appears to be broken

Yum is working ok on F8, but Apt that I prefer to use, appears to be broken on 
F8. See below.

There's a bit more output from when I first installed Apt, and Synaptic, then 
ran apt-get update for the first time. See below.

# apt-get update
Get:1 http://download.fedora.redhat.com fedora/linux/8/i386/os/ repomd.xml 
[418$
86% [1 repomd.xml 3632/4184B

/var/lib/apt/lists/download.fedora.redhat.com_pub_fedora_linux_8_i386_os_repoda$
tic/images/banners/f8-banner-animation.gif" alt="Fedora 8 Werewolf is 
here!"></a
And so on, as the first bunch of output above.

If anyone else is using Apt, or would like to try it, I would appreciate 
feedback before I file a bugreport on Apt.

Nigel.
