Package: alien
Version: 8.60
Severity: normal

First of all I am not sure if this is a package bug, or alien bug. But
report it anyway.
I have downloaded kydpdict package (no debian native package) from:
http://bossstation.dnsalias.org/kydpdict/
(full url:
http://bossstation.dnsalias.org/kydpdict/kydpdict-0.9.0-1.i686.rpm)
run as root:
$ alien kydpdict-0.9.0-1.i686.rpm
It created kydpdict_0.9.0-2_i386.deb in /root.
I installed it, but it mysteriously installed itself in /%{prefix} (root
directory), which I think is wrong.
Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
