I have created a script in perl to create a dpkg from a specs file for rpm.
I create the package, it begins to install but only copies some data.

Note that it will probably fail on very complex .spec files, but those 
are the ones that will typically need some rewriting anyway due to 
differences in eg dependency handling.

I have to ask...  *Why* do you have /usr as a symlink?  Extra partition,
loopback mount, NFS mount I can understand...  Symlink I just can't see
being more useful than any of the other three I noted, or any variants
on the same theme.
