Hi, I'm also a new user here!I checked online on how to convert debian package to rpm, but I was unable to find any tool other than alien.
But I found this link
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, I hope this will be helpful.

don't think it is possible to morph the Debian package into something
that will work with speech-dispatcher. The modules are integrated into
speech-dispatcher, and they need a separate conf file in Fedora's
speech-dispatcher. While the Debian package has a single payload
called espeak-ng, without a configuration file.
I don't know enough about these apps to say whether it would be
possible to just take the binary payload espeak-ng from the Debian
package and put it in /usr/lib64/speech-dispatcher-modules/
(or /usr/lib/speech-dispatcher-modules on 32 bit) and skip the
configuration file, and have it work. Maybe.
Or compile it from the source and do the same.
