I'm trying to use alien to convert a vendor's RPM to .deb. Mainly so I can install it cleanly, but also to help them out. The REQUIRENAME from the RPM has this (xxxxxxxxx is the app...X'ed out due to the fact that this is a beta test, and I'm not sure how much news they want in public):
/bin/sh /bin/sh /bin/sh config(xxxxxxxxx) = 3.3-15 libc.so.6 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.2.3) libdl.so.2 libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.0) libdl.so.2(GLIBC_2.1) libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) libgcc_s.so.1(GLIBC_2.0) libm.so.6 libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libpthread.so.0 libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.0) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.1) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.1.1) libpthread.so.0(GLIBC_2.3.2) libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3) libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3.1) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.5) rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 PROVIDES has this: config(xxxxxxxxx) xxxxxxxxxx.so xxxxxxxxx But, when I convert it to a .deb via alien, the control file looks like this: Package: xxxxxxxxx Version: 3.3-16 Section: alien Priority: extra Architecture: i386 Installed-Size: 9732 Maintainer: Joshua Kugler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Description: xxxxxxxxx for Linux 3.3 . xxxxxxxxx Linux contains the xxxxxxxxx server daemon for Linux as well as the xxxx and xxxx data export daemons. This RPM will install init scripts to start each of these daemons individually. . (Converted from a rpm package by alien version 8.52.) There is no Depends: line. So, how do I instruct alien to convert these dependencies over?
