You can use a program called alien (not sure if its in arch, should be, very useful) that lets you convert between package types.Whats nice is to use alien to convert a .deb to a slackware tarball, and then make either a PKGBUILD for it or just extract it On 2/28/06, Lukas Ruzicka <[EMAIL PROTECTED
