[plug] RH7.3 rpm installation query

[Paul Dean]

Hya,

Well maybe something even easier is Apt4Rpm
http://apt4rpm.sourceforge.net/
Go have a look...

Or altenatively browse to
http://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org/scripts/apt-rpm.html
for the RedHat rpm's.

Where there is a will there is a way...

Hope this helps...
