In general you could use 'alien' to convert deb <-> rpm. Success may
vary whether it works or not. In general Debian follows a very strict policy
which is not the case for different RPM-based distributions. There are tools
which are able to build both package formats from one source and one
set of scripts but I never tested them.
In the case of OIO I really hope that all these prerequisites exist on
any modern distribution as separate packages - but I did not checked.
Kind regards
Andreas.
