fully conformant with the LSB), and it can take LSB packages and convert
them into other formats. Unlike all the other conversions, lsb packages's
dependancy (on lsb) and their package scripts are preserved in the
generated packages (when allowed by the target package format). This means
your distribution will need to have a package named 'lsb' for the result
to be installable. (Debian will have one soon..)
* Suggest rpm-lsb, which is the preferred rpm to build lsb packages with.
Use it if it's present, plain old rpm otherwise.
not in a subshell; this is safer especially if odd filenames are
involved.
* When converting from rpm, only chmod each directory once, it was doing
it many times for some directories before.
* Fixed chmodding to use the correct path to the directory. This fixes
file permissions in rpm's converted to other formats, a bug introduced
at 7.0.
* Fixed some undefined value warnings (which pointed out real but rare
bugs).
* Fixed a rare, but bad little bug. If you ran alien in a directory that
had the suid/sgid bit set (as my home directory does), and generated
debs and probably other formats, it generated packages with the root
directory suid/sgid.
