Sorry for the late reply, I was offline for a week.

You are probably seeing the notorious rpm bug. Fix your database
according to

http://rpm.org/hintskinks/repairdb/

E.g.
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm --rebuilddb
(don't get frightened by any "error" messages)

then check doublicate packages with apt-get check. Reinstall them with

apt-get --reinstall install ...

Then apt-get check again.
