Alien is a program that converts between the ZP> rpm, dpkg, stampede slp, and slackware tgz file ZP> formats. (http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/alien/) I think it was removed a long time ago before Fedora (I think maybe back in the Red Hat 8 or 9 days, perhaps?), it's not even listed as orphaned in the PackageDB: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/packages/name/alien gives a 404. There's no reason it couldn't be readded, AFAICT, if you wanted to become a contributor to the Fedora package collection: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Join Alex -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
