Hi,

I've packaged apt4rpm, a port of the apt package manager used by Debian
that runs on top of RPM.

The SRPM is available at 
http://apt.cis.ksu.edu/solaris/apt/SRPMS.cis/apt-0.5.5cnc6-20030912.src.rpm

The packaging effort was done on Solaris, so there may be quirks
relocating to Linux or *BSD. I imagine the most likely trouble will be
the lack of functions "unsetenv" and "mkdtemp" which are originally from
the BSD C library. A patch included in the source package contains
re-implementations of these functions, inserted into the appropriate C
source files.

The the OpenPKG maintainers: how else may I be of assistance to help
this package be adopted into the CVS repository?
