When you ask a question of this nature, its always a good idea to express the issue ( which you did : not being able to install an rpm package on ubuntu ). And then also mention that it is that you tried and how did you fail. This is not something you did, and pretty much anything that anyone comes up with - will either be unhelpful or just patronising. I'll assume the second and consider you as not knowing what you are doing. So here goes: You should be able to 'apt-get install rpm' and then just use the rpm command to do the install etc ( get creatively interesting with deps ). An rpm file is just a cpio archieve so another option is to install rpm2cpio, extract the payload, and handle that whatever way you like. eg: mkdir -p ~/tmp/myrpm; cd ~/tmp/myrpm/; rpm2cpio pathto.rpm | cpio -idv And finally, there is an app called 'alien', which will conver your rpm into a deb file ( works fine for the very simple rpm's - if there is any level of inherited complexity, you need to handle that on your own ). -- Karanbir Singh London, UK| http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh ICQ: 2522219 | Yahoo IM: z00dax | Gtalk: z00dax GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc ___ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
