tmp/staging/etc/apt/apt-rootfs.conf is the correct path and there isn't
an apt-rootfs.conf in my local builds's i686-linux staging area if that
helps.

I wondered if there was some issue with builds on non-debian systems so
I tried deb based images on a slackware box. I found two issues:

1. apt-ftparchive wasn't being built by apt-native due to problems
linking db-native (which apt-native didn't DEPEND on).

2. I was seeing random failures in the image creation with what looked
file filesystem or memory corruption. I remembered we run all this under
fakeroot and upgrading to a newer version of that seemed to fix things.

Both issues are fixed in poky trunk. I don't know if either is related
to the problem you're seeing but they're probably worth watching out
for.

Cheers,

Richard
