My question here is , are there dpkg downloads and Alien downloads for RedHat Linux 7.1 (kernel 2.4.2-2). I mention the kernel version , as I have not got over the shock of being made a fool of by httrack.com 's latest version 3.09.(They did not have the configure shell script, and the makefile in the download !)

Wrong. Checkinstall is to install the packges after converting to the package format whichever u want deb, rpm etc. It is not for converting from one package format to another.
