Re: Getting apt-rpm

Dear Aaron,

First of all, I apologize for posting such a stupid question. However, I'd like to tell you that I google as much as I could before I post a question here, however stupid it might be to an expert like you. The reason I wanted to install apt-rpm was because it was recommended by the people who wrote a specific software. Yes, I read somewhere apt-rpm was developed for Debian, but didn't think it was limited to only Debian.

I know many people, including myself, use this forum to get help from many knowledgeable people like you. Unfortunately, I am quite a Linux newbie, and after some searching on the web, if I get stuck, I post a question here as a last resort. I hope you understand.

I thank you for your kind help.

Regards,

Peter

Look I don't want to be mean. You have been having a hard time in the
last few weeks with FC4. Why are you trying to give yourself more
trouble. In FC4 updating rpms is done by yum. Why are you making
things hard for yourself and trying to use apt-get which is the
Debian updating tool?

The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and
not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt wondering if something could
have materialized -- and never knowing.
