alien deletes .deb automatically while converting from .rpm
- by Andre
I'm trying to convert .rpm to .deb using alien.
alien -k libtetra-1.0.0-2.i386.rpm
Alien says that:
libtetra-1.0.0-2.i386.deb generated
But when I check the folder - there is just original .rpm and no .deb. Also - I can see that for a split second there is a .deb file in a folder. so it looks like alien create .deb and deletes it right away.
I suspect that it's maybe because I run 64 bit os and package is 32?
Can somebody explain why alien deletes .deb automatically?
