Well ... as a happy Debian users, if I had the opporite problem (needeing to
install something I could get only as an .rpm), I would use "alien" to
convert it from .rpm to .deb. I imagine alien works in both directions,
though I've never tried it the other way. You might look for an alien.*.rpm
package.
