Hi,

My system is RedHat. But I don't have root permission. But I want to
install a Debian package (for example, screen) in my home directory.
Can somebody let me know how to install such a package in my home
directory?


You can't.

Anyway, why install a *Debian* package, when you should be trying toinstall an RPM?
