Hello all,

I have been using Ubuntu (debian) system all through the Linux life.
Recently I got into a situation where I am required to package a software
for a RPM system (CentOS). There are rpm build tools available in the
Ubuntu repos, but I my reading through the forums suggest that its always
better to build rpms in a rpm based system.

Considering we will be specifying the dependencies in the
packaging configuration file and we will be packaging compiled
binaries, How far does it hold good?.

Has anyone packaged RPM things on Ubuntu or any other debian system? What
are the issues you ran into? Is there really any compatibility issues?

P.S: I am asking all this to avoid another OS installation and dev
environment setup procedure. (Pardon my laziness here)
