'man rpm2html' should provide some information.
I'm not familiar with rpm2html, but there is a Debian package of rpm:
To get information about the package, 'rpm -qpi package.rpm'
To get a listing of files in the package, 'rpm -qpl package.rpm'
Do not use rpm to install a package in a Debian system, use alien to
convert it to .deb instead.
