I am trying to convert .rpm to .deb using alien command:



sudo alien <name of package>.rpm


But it's just create a directory that has the same name but never get .deb to install it



There is no errors while converting it



How could I get .deb?

  • Alien is buggy. In your case I would recompile the thing from source into a deb. If it is not an option, then I would manually re-create a deb. Note, probably you would make it better with manually extracting the rpm (rpm2cio) and use it as a no-deb install.
