I just installed Applixware 4.3.7 yesterday on my "bo" system. It seems that they include the rpm utility on the CD, and the installation script apparently makes use of it. All I had to do was indicate where I wanted it installed to (/usr/local/lib/applix), and which optional components I wanted. No need to manually convert RPMs or anything like that.
