Thus spake Phil:
# Is there a way to install RPMs on Debian?
Two ways I can think of:
1)
apt-get install alien
alien --to-deb package.rpm
2)
mkdir /var/lib/rpm
rpm --initdb
then install the package with
rpm -i package.rpm --nodeps
If you have committed yourself to maintaining some RPMs and have since migrated
to Debian as I have, this option will allow you to continue building RPMs on
Debian (using rpmbuild -ba specfile.spec --nodeps) on Debian.
HTH,
PRINCE
