How to install a .rpm file in your Ubuntu?

Simple!!!!!!! :)

Step 1: Install the alien package

$sudo apt-get install alien dpkg-dev debhelper build-essential

Step 2:

locate your .rpm file and do the following command.

$sudo alien filename.rpm

And blast!!!! You have now your .deb package instead of a .rpm one.

Now it’s ready to be installed using the dpkg command.

$sudo dpkg -i filename.deb
