How's this? :) a) get an i386-linux dpkg*.deb b) get alien*.rpm c) run alien on dpkg*.deb d) rpm -uhv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/dpkg*.rpm --nodeps --force e) run cross-install (a-d could be skipped if someone builds a 'correct' dpkg, or can point to where regular binary is, I think) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Troy Benjegerdes | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Unix is user friendly...
