Description Răzvan Sandu 2007-10-14 21:13:00 UTC
Description of problem:
Alien is a program for converting packages to/from between formats (such as .deb
-> .rpm).
It may prove very useful to Fedora users for easily "importing" packages from
the Debian distribution.

It can be downloaded from http://kitenet.net/~joey/code/alien/.
  
Actual results:
There is no "alien" RPM package in the official Fedora repository.

Expected results:
Fedora repositry should contain an "alien" RPM package.

Thanks a lot,
Răzvan

Fedora is an open project that anybody can package software for.
