To try alien before installing, just run ./alien from this directory. Most
features will work prior to installation.
To install alien, become root and type "make install".
To use alien, you will need several other programs. Alien is a perl program,
and requires perl version 5 or greater. You must also have the Getopt::Long
perl module installed on your system, I believe this is a standard part of
perl.
To convert packages to rpms, you need the rpm package manager; get it from
Red Hat's ftp site.
If you want to convert packages to debian packages, you will need the dpkg,
dpkg-dev, and debmake packages, which are available on the Debian ftp site.
You'll also need gcc, and make.
Please report any bugs to the author: Joey Hess <joey@kite.ml.org>
To use alien, you'll need a variety of other software. See the README for
details.
